NEW LAUNCH TIME: Blue Origin is now targeting 4:12 p.m. EST (2112 GMT) for the launch of New Glenn's Mars ESCAPADE mission for NASA. Weather appears clear, though Blue Origin is eyeing a potential tech issue with its pad at Launch Complex 36. Livestream: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FC50...

New Glenn Update: Blue Origin says that some boats have encroached into the safety zone offshore and the team is trying to clear them from that flight path for today's Mars ESCAPADE launch for NASA. The weather does look clearer, but is still being assessed.

Nice view of Blue Origin's NG-2 New Glenn rocket on the pad as we await a new T-0 for NASA's Mars ESCAPADE launch during this weather hold. After the rain, it's a nice change...

LAUNCH HOLD: Blue Origin has stopped the New Glenn NG-2 launch countdown at T-19 min, 58 seconds to wait out the weather. Today's 88-minute launch window shortly after 4 pm ET or so. New T-0 TBD...

The rain has reached Blue Origin's LC36 New Glenn pad for today's launch of NASA's Mars ESCAPADE mission. The clock still ticking down to a 3:18 pm ET launch.

Behold, NASA's ESCAPADE. The twin Rocket Lab-built probes are nestled atop Blue Origin's New Glenn NG-2 rocket for launch alongside a Viasat tech demo payload.

NEW LAUNCH TIME: Blue Origin is now targeting 3:18 p.m. ET for today's New Glenn #NG2 launch of NASA's Mars ESCAPADE mission due to weather. Livestream: www.space.com/space-explor...

T-30 min & counting to launch for Blue Origin's NG-2 New Glenn rocket carrying NASA's ESCAPADE Mars probes. Blue Origin is watching the weather for launch. T-0 set still for 2:45 pm ET. Watch live www.space.com/space-explor...

Hey, Space Fans! Hello from Rocket Lab's new Launch Complex 3 at NASA Wallops here in Virginia, where the company is unveiling its new Neutron rocket pad today...

Splashdown and Thar She Blows! SpaceX's Starship Flight 10 ship makes its on target landing/splashdown before tipping over and exploding via Buoycam.

SpaceX's Starship is now reentering Earth's atmosphere for a planned soft-landing and splashdown in the Indian Ocean. Part of the aft skirt suffered some damage, but the vehicle is still making its descent.

Starship Engine Relight! Starship Flight 10 Ship fired up a single Raptor engine in a critical reignition test, completing the spacecraft's in-space demonstrations for today's flight. The spacecraft's next milestone is reentry and splashdown.

I do love it when the team behind a space mission success cheers like these SpaceX engineers. Never gets old. And the crowd goes wild...

Starship Starlink Deploy Success: SpaceX's Starship Flight 10 Ship has successfully deployed all 8 of its Starlink simulators in a fairly smooth test of the Pez dispenser-like deployment system. Starship will eventually fly 60 Starlink V3 satellites at a time.

Starship Satellite Simulator Deploy! In a major milestone , SpaceX's Ship has begun deploying the eight Starlink satellite simulators. The spacecraft has spit out five of the satellites so far, which are in a flat stack, much like a Pez candy dispenser at a rate of about one per minute.

Starship in Space: SpaceX's Flight 10 Ship upper stage has shut down its engines and is now coasting in space, a major milestone for today's test flight. The next milestone will be the deployment of 8 Starlink simulators at the 18-minute mark of the flight.

Splashdown 1! SpaceX's Starship Super Heavy booster made a soft landing and splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico after a smooth launch and stage separation. The 33-engine rocket lost 1 engine, but it did not appear to affect the flight Ship upper stage has shut down its engines and is coasting

Stage Separation: SpaceX's Starship Super Heavy booster has separated from its Ship upper stage in a hot staging event to return to Earth for a landing and splashdown.

LIFTOFF! SpaceX's Starship Super Heavy booster ignited its 33 main engines on time and is soaring spaceward for a liftoff of SpaceX's Fligth 10 test flight. The towering rocket, standing over 400 feet tall, will take just over 2.5 minutes to separate its first stage and Ship

T-2 minutes to Starship Flight 10 launch

T-5 minutes to go for SpaceX's Starship Flight 10 test flight at 7:30 p.m. EDT (2330 GMT). All systems are GO for launch. No issues, weather looks good. Now's a good time to tune in... @space.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EEO...

Starship Flt 10: SpaceX reports weather is now GO for today's Starship launch @ 7:30 p.m. EDT (2330 GMT). Weather is GO T-10 minutes to launch "We are green right now," Dan Huot says. 'We're not tracking any issues with the vehicle or ground systems, so we are looking pretty good for launch."

It's Launch Day: SpaceX is ~T-30 minutes & counting for the launch of #Starship Flight 10 today at 7:30 pm ET. So now's a great time to tune in @spacedotcom + get that popcorn ready... #starshipflight10 www.space.com/space-explor...

SpaceX's launch double header today kicks off with a successful Falcon 9 launch of the NAOS Earth obs satellite for Italy + 7 other satellites from Vandenberg. Starship Flight 10 tonight.

SCRUB! SpaceX calls off Starship Flight 10 launch due to bad weather. "So sad news, not going to launch today. Weather got in our way," SpaceX's Dan Huot says. "Very good chance that we could try again tomorrow."

Starship Flight 10: SpaceX has completed the fueling of its Starship Flight 10 rocket, completing the load of liquid methane and liquid oxygen that will feed its Raptor engines. The weather is still no-go for launch, SpaceX's Dan Huot says, so expect a hold at T-40 seconds for that.

Starship Flight 10: Weather is currently RED (no go) for Starship Flight 10, SpaceX says. Fueling is going smoothly, no technical issues with the rocket. So all eyes are on the weather. "That's the only thing that could potentially stop us today," SpaceX's Dan Huot says.

Starship Flight 10: SpaceX is T-10 minutes + counting down for tonight's launch. Seems like fueling has been going more smoothly for SpaceX's than yesterday's scrubbed attempt. The company is hyping its Starlink system now (Starship is expected to launch fleets of the internet satellites)

Hey, hey Space Fans! It's time for a new SpaceX Starship Flight 10 launch try. We're live with SpaceX as the stream is starting for a planned launch tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET (2330 GMT). www.space.com/space-explor...

If anyone spots SpaceX's Starship Flight 9 reentry or debris trails from today's test flight and uncontrolled reentry, let me know. I'm wondering if it was visible to anyone, since Flight 9 made it farther than the previous flights this year.

SpaceX Launches Starship Flight 9! @SpaceX's Ship upper stage reached its planned altitude for the 1st time this year (after 2 failures) w/ 1st reused Super Heavy making it through launch and stage sep. It appeared to breakapart during its landing burn over Gulf of Mexico

New Hold! After resuming very briefly, the launch countdown is again stopped at T-41 seconds for the Starship Flight 9 launch. "It looks like this time it was a ground side issue," SpaceX Dan Huot said.

HOLD! SpaceX has called a hold at T-40 seconds for tonight's Starship Flight 9 launch. The company has a 1 hour window for tonight's launch that runs from 7:30-8:30 pm ET. @space.com www.space.com/space-explor...
