SpaceX will launch "Starfall Demo" mission NET June 21st per FAA Operations Plan Advisory from SLC-40 at Cape Canaveral, FL.
A single Starfall test re-entry vehicle will launch Southeast from the cape over the Bahamas with the 1st stage likely boosting back to a Land LZ.
The upper stage will insert the payload into a (likely) orbit of ~180 x 600km x 56.1 degrees around 8 minutes into flight. The upper stage and the payload will then coast in this orbit for 2.5 hours or 1.5 orbits where the upper stage will then conduct a de-orbit burn lowering the perigee down into Earth's lower Atmosphere.
The Starfall Demo payload will then jettison from the upper stage and the re-entry phase will start at around 3 hours into the flight over the Northeast Pacific Ocean. The re-entry vessel will splash down ~600 miles West of Vandenberg, CA.
Note: this mission isnt officially on SpaceX's itinerary, so date and exact information aren't known with 100% certainty. This should serve as a preliminary glimpse into this mission.

I really don’t like this. We are not meant to see this

This is a deep-sea isopod. Dr. Johanna Weston, deep-ocean biologist and guest investigator at @WHOI, is confident this is Bathyopsurus nybelini, one of her favorite animals. Learn why via the YouTube caption: youtube.com/shorts/DenUjeP…

Iran does not currently have the operational capability to force Amerisrael to make concessions regarding the WB or Gaza.
Iran spent 2 years trying to avoid war, the Israelis spent 2 years preparing. Whatever window you had closed as a result.
Propaganda & co@propandco
Not even mentioning Gaza was disgusting. Absolutely shameful.

- le chaton fat won't resist shutdown. in fact, it requires at least 3h daily shutdown at noon
- le chaton fat only sandbags societally corrosive tasks, like paternity tests
- le chaton fat thinks tiling the universe with paperclips is déclassé, and probably violates the GDPR
thebes@voooooogel
@Sauers_ le chaton fat solved the alignment problem, the missing piece was it had to be specifically french values

I didn't understand that there's a reason people don't own their mistakes. All it results in is people seeing the mistake for the first time, but not you owning it. They'll keep pestering me with snarky "update??" vitriol. Basically, pretending you never fail is optimal

This aged poorly In my defense, apparently the highest echelons of the Only Superpower had the same forecast. This war shit is actually kind of hard, huh

Wow I can’t believe Nobel prize winning economist Paul Krugman was wrong
yung macro 宏观年少传奇@apralky
It’s easy to lose track of how fast mainstream perceptions are updating to The Moment right now – below is Paul Krugman, as late as Dec 2025 (!), making the (well-received) case that it’s not that big a deal for Europe to not be “producing its own advanced tech”, and that the inclusion of tech behemoths in US economic performance metrics is distortionary of the real relative standing of the two.

Me being put to death in 2030 for saying it wasn’t 6 million protesters
Laura Loomer@LauraLoomer
I feel very sad for the protestors in Iran who lost their lives. Nearly 100,000 innocent people slaughtered this year in Iran by the Iranian regime and IRGC.

@ScienceFan_ I'm talking Lebanon as a whole. The IDF will certainly take losses but southern Lebanon will remain occupied for the foreseeable future and the Syrian leaks will put strain on their resupply/future conflicts
English
@weewoono Hezbollah is arguably better positioned to oppose the IDF than ever in history. 🤷♂️

Planetary defense is a pressing challenge in space. Here's how Blue Ring is solving it. We developed NEO (Near-Earth Objects) Hunter, a mission concept that tests ion-beam deflection and direct kinetic impact techniques, leveraging Blue Ring's unique ability to maneuver, host, and deploy payloads across deep space.

@ScienceFan_ There was lots of speculation about the GCC states opposing the US over damage their own energy infrastructure that never really materialized other than Qatar paying off Iran
English
@weewoono How would one gauge what the "political damage with the GCC" is ?
They were & remain American satrapies, idt much changed there.
English
@GogOnMuhGog functional end of the axis of resistance in many regards, also opens the door for a Syria like outcome where you eventually just buy out enough people for destabilization
English
@weewoono Exactly. Shekels for principles is a terrible deal for Iran. I’d expect the next time the US will just bomb them to the Stone Age.

Both sides are indeed committed. But they have left themselves exposed to Israel. Will Israel obey? If it does not, will we see a separate peace? or does the MOU go out of the window?
Gregory Brew@gbrew24
There is a lot of uncertainty over what is in the MOU. Yesterday the deal was "announced." The finalization will occur this Friday--the week-long period is likely necessary to smooth other operational issues. But fwiw, it is very notable that Iran's leadership also announced the deal, that it is being framed as a deal that ends the war, and that critics of the deal are being marginalized while leadership members line up in support of it. Both sides are committed, at this point. That leaves haggling over details. They've bought the car, now they're quibbling over whether or not to include a sun roof and leather interiors.

@iron_redux All in all I rate the war as retarded/10 with no one really happy with the outcome. Probably reignite within 12 months
English
@iron_redux That said neither the US nor Israelis achieved their ideal end state either but they have the luxury of getting to try again with a fraction of the damage Iran suffered. Very easy to slide into a Syria situation and salami slice away at Iran now
English
Yes, I am right, Iran did get trashed by IAF & USAF, their country is doing very very badly right now, and no we haven't seen anything actually impressive from them. You leftists are living in a fantasy world of emotion and mental illness. We knew they could close Hormuz in 2007
netsky remix@iron_redux
Iran is going to get trashed. Everything else is total nonsense lol
