Nzoner's Game Room>Space Exploration megathread
DaFace 09:40 AM 06-01-2014
Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

I feel dumb! But the live chat came up so I thought it was realtime.

I really wish YouTube would shut those kinds of channels down. They're intentionally misleading. So don't feel dumb.

Weather is looking good for tonight at 10:30pm Eastern. I'll be curious to see what (if any) part of the deployment they'll show. I can't imagine 60 of them are going to be spit off very quickly.

Cool article with lots of details about Starlink here:

Long coast phase tonight. Landing and SECO will happen about 10 minutes in, then nothing for almost an hour. Hopefully they'll stick around to show at least some of the satellites deploying, but I really have no idea what to expect.

Starlink mission will be heaviest @SpaceX payload ever at 18.5 tons. If all goes well, each launch of 60 satellites will generate more power than Space Station & deliver 1 terabit of bandwidth to Earth.

Huh. Launch is scrubbed. Wonder what's up.

Try again tomorrow.
