@Ourworldalpha11 @HistoryBoomer The Purple Hearts we give out today (as of 4 years ago when I got out) are the same ones that were minted in preparation of the invasion of mainland Japan

This wasn’t science fiction. It was Operation Credible Sport. 🇺🇸
In 1980, the XFC-130H was turned into one of the wildest aircraft ever tested packing 30 rocket motors to make a heavily modified C-130 capable of extreme short-field operations.
It had MK-56 boosters for takeoff, ent and ASROC rockets for braking
The plan was to land inside Tehran’s Amjadieh Stadium, extract the American hostages, and get out.
The footage shows the insane part: rockets firing as the Hercules accelerates like a fighter jet, surrounded by smoke and flames.
The mission was ultimately canceled but the engineering experiment was REAL.

View of Starship in space from a Starlink V3 satellite on Flight 13.
This composite is made of imagery from four separate cameras on a single satellite. Six of the satellites were equipped with cameras to scan Starship’s heat shield and transmit imagery down to operators to s of analyzing Starship’s heat shield readiness for return to launch site on future missions

This the estimated size of the eye of future Bavi "68 miles in Diameter" according the GFS model, it would be big enough to have Miami/fort Lauderdale/napes/fort Myers all inside the Eye at the same time!!! #bavi #Twitterwx #Wx #Typhoon

"This press conference is solely for those pieces of sh*t who are right there!"
Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods exploded on a reporter who ignored the subject of his press conference -- a sting conducted to capture child sex offenders -- and asked about an unrelated case.

Something interesting I've discovered recently is that the 'First Man' Launch OST is perfectly in sync with Starship Flight 12 up to Hot-Staging.

...."NOT MY PICTURE"....
But Yeah it's a miracle the second tower didn't collapse in the blast, look at the right side of the tower in the image👀, But yeah it's going to have to be Demolished.

First look at LC-36 from the air this morning after the explosion of New Glenn last night during a failed hotfire test.
Visible is the wreckage from the destroyed TE as well as the fallen lightning tower. More to come soon.

@aaronburnett Our goal is launching Starship >10k/year, which would be more than once an hour. Probably over 200 tons of useful load to a useful orbit per flight by then.
