Double RTLS in daytime, should be quite a show.
Oh my. That is quite the spectacle.

It’s too bad they couldn’t have included a companion Roomba to sweep the dust off the panels.

Cliffs on this mission?
Mostly it was for studying the geology and seismic activity of Mars is what I’m getting from wikipedia.
Starship vs SLS race may go down to the wire. SLS is scheduled to go off next week, but there’s concern that weather might force them to roll it back from the launchpad:
Starship is said to be targeting December 1 (very soft date) for its orbital test.

A Long March 6 upper stage has broken apart into 50+ pieces in a sun-synchronous orbit. Not great.
What’s a long March 6 upper stage?
chinese rocket final stage that gets the payload into orbit, then should be nicely de-orbited in one piece to burn up on re-entry. That hasn’t happened, and now we got a ton of space garbo up there that may or may not reenter or ever go away.
awesome

One of the only cool things about living in Florida is that I could go go outside and see the space shuttle launches from hundreds of miles away. Didn’t realize this was happening tonight. It looks like there is some clouds, but I’ll be outside trying to see it.
