SpaceX Finally Repaired the Raptor: If This Test Fails, Starship Flight 9 is in Trouble  @scientia_plus

Starship Flight 9 is heating up—literally. Ship 35 has completed Raptor engine installation and is preparing for a critical static fire test to validate fixes for the Flight 8 failure. Booster 14 has finished its own static fires and is now undergoing final pre-launch inspections. Meanwhile, Pad B saw the installation of flame diverter buckets and water deluge plumbing, paving the way for future high-cadence launches. On the production side, stacking of Ship 37 is done, Ship 36 is nearing cryo-proof, and Block 3 vehicles are in the works. Plus, demolition of the High Bay and Stargate is making room for the massive Gigabay integration hub.🔥

NASA is facing a historic budget crisis — and space scientists are furious. The Trump administration has proposed slashing NASA’s funding by 20%, with the Science Mission Directorate taking a catastrophic 50% hit. Blue Origin just made history with its first all-women crewed spaceflight on April 14th. The NS-31 mission saw six remarkable women—including pop icon Katy Perry. 🚀🔥
