US customers that are in poor internet areas will be the first to experience SpaceX’s Starlink satellite in August. Two days ago, SpaceX launched 60 more satellites to a total of 420 satellites that were previously launched. Elon Musk confirmed this in a tweet: There are now 420 operational Starlink satellites ? ? — Elon
After SN3 suffered a testing anomaly a week ago, SpaceX immediately began preparing the next iteration of Starship, SN4. In just over a week, the SpaceX Boca Chica facility fully stacked the rings for the propellant section of SN4, while SN3’s nose cone remains sitting on the facility grounds, which may or may not be
On a foggy day on the beaches of Texas, SpaceX rolls out its much-awaited new and third Starship test article, SN3. With only its propellant tanks and engine bay stacked, SN3 was hoisted onto its launch mount in preparation for pressure tests and a potential short flight. Starship (formally known as BFR) is SpaceX’s in-development
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — As is to be expected with critical missions meant to demonstrate transportation systems for astronauts, things tend to change in the lead up to the big day.

A 3D base simulator, called Project Eagle, was created by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and independent game studio Blackbird Interactive (BBI) and it turned out incredibly realistic. In the simulation, users can go through its multi-level Eagle Base where you can see previous and current colony construction, energy and habitation projects with infographics which
This weekend on Twitter, Elon Musk delivered fantastic news for fans of his SpaceX company. Only when the 21st rocket launch of the year happened on Saturday did he reveal that construction of a prototype for a Mars spaceship – Starship – is now underway at the company’s Texas launch site. But that’s not all.
Elon Musk’s aerospace company, SpaceX, is raising $500 million at a $30.5 billion valuation in order to fund a satellite-based internet service, reports The Wall Street Journal. SpaceX is planning to launch a massive network of satellites into orbit to give internet service for devices on the ground. That would give an alternative to cellular.
