More than a dozen flight tests and years of development, with countless hours worked by SpaceX engineers and technicians, all come down to this: the first orbital Starship launch carrying advanced Starlink satellites bound for space.

Throwback to the time Ryan Reynolds learned the shoot was canceled and decided to prank his makeup team after they’d already spent 8 hours working.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The video is real 2019 Deadpool 2 BTS footage of Ryan Reynolds pranking his makeup team, but original sources confirm no canceled shoot and ~2-hour (not 8-hour) application time.

Elon Musk on 60 Minutes in 2012, inside the SpaceX factory, on Falcon 1 failing three times in a row and his own heroes testifying against commercial spaceflight.
Falcon 1 failed on its first three launches. Elon said that if the fourth had failed too, SpaceX would not have had the resources to try a fifth.
"I'm probably not the guy that most people would bet on."
Two months after it aired, Dragon became the first commercial spacecraft to reach the space station. In 2020, SpaceX flew NASA astronauts there, the first crew launch from American soil since 2011.

NASA’s Psyche spacecraft has fired up its thrusters and is accelerating to the metal-rich asteroid of the same name. Learn more about Psyche’s solar-powered propulsion system, which uses electromagnetic fields to steadily deliver thrust: go.nasa.gov/4jAR2bY

ALT Photo of a Hall thruster identical to those on NASA’s Psyche operating in a vacuum chamber at JPL during tests. A ring of blue light emits a hazy stream of glowing material. The blue light is generated by xenon ions being accelerated through an electromagnetic field, which gives the spacecraft a gentle but steady acceleration. NASA/JPL-Caltech

Complex designs demand faster simulation.
Announced at #NVIDIAGTC Berlin, NVIDIA cuDSS 1.0 is now generally available to accelerate direct sparse solves for engineering and scientific simulations, helping teams solve complex systems faster and explore more designs from workstations to multi-node clusters.

This is shocking
Here’s a comparison of what the streets looked like in Johannesburg, South Africa, compared to what they like today in 2026…. WOW
There was a major political shift that happened during this time. The main turning point was the end of apartheid and the 1994 democratic elections, which transferred political power from White minority rule to Black majority rule under the African National Congress
What followed was a “financial doom loop” a collapse of the water, electricity, roads and infrastructure system as well as systemic corruption
Replying to @Scobleizer
True.
You will be able to ask the Roadster to perform any of the tricks shown autonomously, as it will be sentient.
Also, we will have a wild looping track (crazier even than Hot Wheels) at our Texas HQ where you can test out your Roadster.
The first Starship to return to its launch site, Ship 40's journey took it across air, space, and sea. Now that it is vertical alongside three other Starships in a Megabay at Starbase, it will provide first-of-its-kind data on a flown Starship heatshield, Raptor engines, avionics, and more.
