SpaceX Catching Starship and Booster for Ten Times the Launch Rate


Elon Musk has shared SpaceX simulations of the catching of the SpaceX Starship and booster.

Being able to make the Mechazilla SpaceX catch system will enable SpaceX to a launch, land and relaunch three times a day.

A normal landing, maintenance, craning the booster and starship onto crawlers and moving 1 mph via crawler would mean about one or may two launches a week.

Material Made Under High Pressure BaCoO3 Impersonates a Superconductor

Researchers report that a material (hexagonal HP-BaCoO3) made under high-pressure (6 GPa, 1200 °C) and was tested at ambient-pressure. The material (with a 2H crystal structure) has a short intrachain Co–Co distance of about 2.07 Å. The magnetization investigation revealed robust diamagnetic behavior below approximately 130 K when the material was exposed to weak applied…

Finland and Sweden Moving Ahead Towards NATO Membership

Finland and Sweden are moving ahead on separate tracks to quickly move ahead to join NATO. Finland had indicated it would prefer a solution that would see the two Nordic unaligned states “jump together” into NATO. Sweden is looking at a range of enhanced security-related options, including deepening Nordic defense cooperation and urging the European…

EV Companies Not Using Iron LFP Batteries Are Doomed

Volkswagen, Ford and GM are making nickel batteries. Nickel batteries are currently about twice as expensive as iron LFP batteries. LFP battery volume will be about 80% of the total battery market in 2024-2025. Nickel prices are increasing and LFP battery mass production will drive down their prices faster. Iron LFP batteries could become three…
