screen shot from my old twitter account 2021-10-12 first tweet: "i'm fuckin' wheezing they had the thing on the pad ready to go at the start of August and now they're saying it might not go to space for AN ENTIRE YEAR" second tweet: "if Nauka hadn't tokyo drifted the ISS all over orbit and the July 29th launch hadn't been scrubbed, would it have worked? Did Nauka singlehandedly cockblock Boeing into 2022?"

The agency is considering plans to send to the Moon, PROMISE (Polar Rover for Observation, Mapping, and In-Situ Exploration), a hybrid engineering development version of the Mars Perseverance and Curiosity rovers. Agency experts will define potential opportunities for PROMISE to characterize the lunar surface, subsurface, and prospect for resources."

Screenshot from David Limp (CEO of Blue Origin) on Twitter, 8:45pm, June 1 2026. https://twitter.com/davill/status/2061655383610114124 "Some LC-36 updates. Now that we’ve had access to the pad and integration facility we can share a bit of good news. The propellant farm, oxygen, liquid hydrogen and LNG tanks are all in good shape. This is good luck because these are very long lead items. The water tower is also good. The big support tower is damaged, but it can be repaired in place rather than torn down and replaced. The booster “Never Tell Me The Odds” and the three GS-2s that were onsite in the integration facility also look good. I’ve seen some speculation that we might move directly to the 9x4 configuration, but we won’t do that. Rate manufacturing of 7x2 is going well, and we’re going to continue that at pace as planned and store the stages for use. In addition, we had already been working for some time on eliminating our transporter-erector in favor of an alternative vertical conop, and we’ll now go directly to that; so we don’t need a new transporter-erector. We will fly again before the end of this year. Gradatim Ferociter."
