Much of the MSM reporting the Crew 10 2 day delay as a disaster for Musk. Good grief

Successful reentry and landing.  The recovery team had some assistance preparing the spacecraft for lifting aboard the recovery ship from a pod of about seven porpoises.  The Dragon capsule was lifted aboard the recovery ship Megan and all four astronauts have exited the Dragon capsule and look to be in good spirits.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Meant to post a link to the live coverage but after fighting the dishwasher most of the day yesterday, last night, and then this morning left me with one heck of a migraine after I figured  out after 3 complete tear downs of the dishwasher the problem I was fighting the whole time was caused by the fact that the new part was assembled wrong at the factory.  :facepalm:

More Starliner news

NSF - NASASpaceflight.com
@NASASpaceflight
Starliner update:

https://nasa.gov/blogs/commercialcrew/2025/03/27/nasa-boeing-prepare-for-starliner-testing/


“We’ll continue to work through certification toward the end of this year and then go figure out where Starliner fits best in the schedule for the International Space Station and its crew and cargo missions. It is likely to be in the timeframe of late this calendar year or early next year for the next Starliner flight." - Steve Stich, manager, NASA’s Commercial Crew Program

LAUNCH! Isar Aerospace's Spectrum rocket launches from the Orbital Launch Pad at the Andøya Space Center in Norway.

And failed early in first stage flight. That's why it's a test flight.

Impact

Reportedly no damage to the launch pad

I guess they didn't have enough Germans. Oh wait...

Germany-based Isar Aerospace attempted to launch the first orbital rocket from European soil on Sunday morning (March 30). The company's Spectrum rocket lifted off from Europe's Andøya Spaceport in Norway, but suffered an anomaly 18 seconds into the flight.
