Initial Super Heavy V3 and Starbase Pad 2 activation campaign complete, wrapping up several days of testing that loaded cryogenic fuel and oxidizer on a V3 vehicle for the first time. While the 10-engine static fire ended early due to a ground-side issue, we saw successful startup on all installed Raptor 3 engines. Next up: preparing the booster for a 33-engine static fire

NASA’s new laser retroreflector array (LRA) on GPS III SV‑09 is now live, bouncing ground‑based laser pulses back to the satellite. By measuring the round‑trip time with millimeter precision, the LRA sharpens orbit tracking and boosts GPS positioning accuracy for civilian and military users. science.nasa.gov/centers-and-fa… #GPS #SpaceTech

A new Smithsonian‑AAAS paper warns we must legally, scientifically and engineering‑wise protect these historic sites before the lunar landscape is overrun. universetoday.com/articles/the-m… #MoonHeritage #SpaceLaw
