Jerry Clark+FollowSpaceX Boom Sparks Mexico Lawsuit BuzzSo, SpaceX’s Starship exploded again during a test in Texas, and now Mexico’s president is threatening to sue over alleged contamination drifting across the border. Imagine living near the beach and suddenly worrying about rocket debris in your backyard! This drama isn’t just about rockets—it's a reminder that big tech launches can have real-life fallout for neighbors. Next time you see a rocket launch livestream, remember: someone nearby might be picking up the pieces—literally. #SpaceX #Mexico #Starship #Business #Industry11Share
peterfoster+FollowWould You Send Your DNA to Space?Ever thought about blasting your DNA or a loved one's ashes into orbit? Celestis is making that possible, and their next ride is on SpaceX’s Transporter 14. Over 150 capsules—some with human remains, others with DNA—will circle Earth before splashing down for families to keep as cosmic souvenirs. The twist? Even a 3-year-old is joining the space club! Space memorials are now a real thing, not just sci-fi. #SpaceX #Celestis #SpaceMemorial #Business #Industry22Share
awaters+FollowSpace Crew Delayed—Here’s Why It MattersHeads up, space fans! The next batch of private astronauts was about to head to the International Space Station, but a pesky leak put their plans on hold. Think of it like having to reschedule your flight because the plane needs a quick fix. NASA and SpaceX are double-checking everything so the crew stays safe. The big takeaway? Even in space travel, safety checks can mean waiting a bit longer for liftoff. Patience pays off—especially when your ride is a rocket! #SpaceNews #AxiomSpace #SpaceX #Business #Industry30Share
peterfoster+FollowSpace Robots & Space Books Just Landed!Guess what just splashed down from space? SpaceX’s Dragon capsule came back loaded with 6,700 pounds of futuristic goodies, including robot arms that can grab stuff in zero gravity and materials tough enough for deep space. Why should you care? These space-tested gadgets could mean longer-lasting satellites (hello, better WiFi and TV!), safer space junk cleanups, and even cooler science lessons for kids—thanks to astronauts reading books in orbit. Space tech is getting closer to our everyday lives! #SpaceX #SpaceTech #Robotics #Business30Share
Jerry Clark+FollowWhy SpaceX’s Starship Blew Up (And What’s Next)SpaceX’s Starship exploded mid-flight last time because of a surprise spark in its rocket engines—think of it like a kitchen gas leak meeting a stray flame. The fix? More insulation and better plumbing to keep the flammable stuff in check. If you’re into big launches, Flight 9 is set for May 27, and this time, SpaceX says they’ve patched the problem. It’s a reminder: even rocket science sometimes comes down to tightening bolts and stopping leaks! #SpaceX #Starship #RocketScience #Business4812Share
bradfordbonnie+FollowStarlink’s $0 Hardware: Game Changer or Trap?SpaceX just dropped the upfront cost of Starlink hardware to zero with a new 12-month plan—no increase in monthly fees. Sounds like a win for rural internet access, right? But here’s the catch: if you move or cancel early, you’re hit with a hefty prorated fee. Plus, some areas get a $100 demand surcharge. Is this a bold move to democratize connectivity, or just clever fine print? Would you take the plunge? #Starlink #SatelliteInternet #TechDebate #SpaceX #Connectivity #Tech1317Share
