SpaceX's Falcon 9 Suffers Unusual Malfunction, 20 Starlink Satellites Deployed into Lower Orbit

Broke On: Thursday, 11 July 2024 SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket, with over 350 successful launches since 2010, experienced an unexpected malfunction during a second-stage booster burn on July 11, resulting in the deployment of Starlink satellites into a lower than intended orbit. Preliminary findings suggest high atmospheric drag caused the electric propulsion system to fail. SpaceX and FAA are investigating while Falcon 9 is grounded indefinitely.

Synchronized Six-Planet Solar System Discovered in the Milky Way

NASA's Lucy Spacecraft Begins 12-Year Mission with Successful Flyby of Asteroid Dinkinesh

Broke On: Wednesday, 01 November 2023 NASA's Lucy spacecraft has successfully completed its first flyby of an asteroid named Dinkinesh. The mission is significant as it is the farthest-flung solar-powered spacecraft and the first to explore seven Trojan asteroids that share an orbital path with Jupiter. Despite one of the two solar wings on the spacecraft remaining loose, it is believed to be stable enough for the entire mission.
