BOCA CHICA, Texas (ValleyCentral) — A tourist staple at the Boca Chica SpaceX launch site is being relocated.

Many space enthusiasts who have been following SpaceX’s progression in the Rio Grande Valley know that the Starhopper started it all for the space flight company in South Texas.

In 2019, the Starhopper prototype performed its first successful 150 meter flight at the SpaceX Starbase (Boca Chica) site. Since then, the company has continued to test its flight engineering with different SN rockets.

How much do we really know about what else is out there in the universe?

A solid state turbine may be the next evolution for marine travel, just like Novium is the next evolution of pens.

Learning from my first design, I created an improved marine thruster that uses magnetohydrodynamic thrust. It took the better part of a month, and plenty of tests. This really pushed my 3D printing skills to the limit, but it also lead to fully functional thruster that outperformed my expectations. Thanks to Onshape for their awesome modeling program.

Candle flames and airplane engines produce tiny soot particles from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as their precursors, both of which are harmful to humans and the environment. These carbon-based particles are also common in space, making up 10–12% of interstellar matter, and are becoming valuable for use in electronic devices and sustainable energy. However, the fingerprint signals of soot and PAHs have very short lifespans in flames—lasting only a few billionths to millionths of a second. This brief existence requires very fast cameras to capture their behavior in both space and time.

Meanwhile, strange noises emanate from Starliner.

Thank God they didn’t send crew back on Starliner!

A “promising place” to explore.

Starship underperforms by 50%. Yikes!

A new study from scientists has claimed SpaceX’s explosion of its Starship rocket last year blew a first-of-its-kind hole in Earth’s atmosphere.
