Booster 10
@booster_10
Space twitter's best booster. Space news, theories and predictions aplenty. Not affiliated with SpaceX.
This is the only picture I've seen that properly conveys just how big the OLM is.
Still doesn't come close to flight 7 though. Don't think I've ever had a faster mood shift than when i looked down and saw this.
Watching Flight 8 live was quite painful, even though i wasn't suprised by S34's failure it still really sucked.

Did you know Blue Origin's first flying vehicle wasn't a rocket? It was a jet powered test vehicle called Charon.
PM-2 was a prototype New Shepard first stage powered by 5 BE-2 engines. It flew twice, first a short successful hop and then a higher flight which failed 13.7km up at a speed of mach 1.2.
Slowmotion videos of engine startup are always peak.
Hotfire at our test facility in preparation for testing the new combustion chamber for the next-generation Astra first stage engine that will power Rocket 4.
Chris Kemp has announced that Astra will be hotfiring Rocket 4's upper stage later this year.
Hotstaging isn't just beautiful, it's efficient. It both eliminates gravity losses during staging and massively speeds up the booster flip.
Onboard view of the pad abort test.
Dragon pad abort test in 2015. Even though this test slightly underperformed it was still able to safely land in the ocean proving Dragon could escape if there was an emergency prior to launch.
A few months before the first crewed Crew Dragon launch SpaceX conducted an inflight abort test, sacrificing a Falcon 9 to prove that Dragon could escape in an emergency situation.
Like seriously Interstellar Gateway are the best of the best.
I've seen this exact reaction so many times, Interstellar Gateway has some of the best views available and most people have no idea.

why have i not seen this beautiful shot before 😢
One of the many changes SpaceX made to Pad B and Block 3 is the switch to a dual Booster Quick Disconnect design, one for methane and one for oxygen.
A view of Starbase pad 2 progress today. A new protective hood has been placed over the liquid methane BQD and the liquid oxygen BQD was installed last night. 7/21/25
I laugh a little every time I remember there's currently a Tesla Roadster orbiting the sun.
Got reminded of the Minotaur V frog today. One of the funniest Spaceflight pictures ever taken.
"NASA is BACK!" Meanwhile NASA:
56 years ago today, AMERICANS were first to set foot on the Moon, proving again that we're the greatest nation on Earth. It's time to top that mission. Thanks to President Trump, @NASA is BACK! @NASAArtemis will finish what we started: we're going back to the Moon &, this time,…
