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.

There are supposed to be significant changes to SN15 and above, so I kind of figured SN11 was a throw away. They scrapped SN12-14, months ago. Still disappointing, but low expectations going in.

Just sharing a few cool (I think) infographics that make great options in rotating wallpaper configs.

Looks like today is a tweet storm day for Musk. That glass dome dragon looks cool.

Is BN1 going to have any engines installed? I know they aren't going to attempt to fly it.

He tweeted something about BN2 getting engines installed and BN1 being scrapped, so I'm guessing not.

Very cool. I can't believe it will be another week before they even take off. They need to keep this expedition moving forward!
