Educating Space

@SpaceX @Starlink When was the last time you saw the word passivate? Be honest.

During today’s Falcon 9 launch of @Starlink satellites, the second stage experienced an off-nominal condition during preparation for the deorbit burn. The vehicle then performed as designed to successfully passivate the stage. The first two MVac burns were nominal and safely deployed all 25 @Starlink satellites to their intended orbit. Teams are reviewing data to determine root cause and corrective actions before returning to flight

It's our #birthday today! 🎉 @NASA officially began operation 66 years ago #OTD in 1958. As part our continuing mission to explore the unknown in air and space, we've learned and accomplished so much over the years. And so many more astounding discoveries are yet to come.
