Surrounded by antlers maybe, but not by emptiness I'm sure!
SpaceX caught the bloody booster with the chopsticks... That is insane. That booster is 2.5X more powerful than the Saturn V that took us to the moon. If they can begin operating these commercially, and landing the Starship with it, deep space becomes far more economical to an insane degree.
Here's video of the booster being 'caught with chopsticks'

Watch: SpaceX Starship booster caught in mid air
It’s the first time the "chopsticks manoeuvre" has been attempted, with previous boosters landing in the ocean.

Breath taking moment in history, incredible performance from the team in achieving this historic milestone!!!
The amount of hours put into this would be huge, precision engineering at it’s best.
Why haven't aliens visited our solar system?
They looked at the reviews and saw it only had 1 star.

There is no A.I. Just better computers
I'll be impressed when they catch it with chap sticks.
It kinda looks like a chap stick being caught with chopsticks...!

Blue Ghost touches down on da moon!!!
Carrying NASA science and technology, Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost Mission 1 successfully landed on the lunar surface at 3:34 a.m. EST on Sunday, March 2, near a volcanic feature called Mons Latreille within Mare Crisium, a more than 300-mile-wide basin located in the northeast quadrant of the Moon’s near side.
“This incredible achievement demonstrates how NASA and American companies are leading the way in space exploration for the benefit of all,” said NASA acting Administrator Janet Petro. “We have already learned many lessons—and the technological and science demonstrations onboard Firefly’s Blue Ghost Mission 1 will improve our ability to not only discover more science but also to ensure the safety of our spacecraft instruments for future human exploration—both in the short term and long term.”
During surface operations, the NASA instruments will test and demonstrate lunar subsurface drilling technology, regolith sample collection capabilities, global navigation satellite system abilities, radiation-tolerant computing, and lunar dust mitigation methods. The data captured will benefit humanity by providing insights into how space weather and other cosmic forces impact Earth.

No more flights from this bad boy.
Hard a hard landing and broke a couple of rotors. #grounded.

I'm waiting for the first shipment of genuine Mars bars to make all this space investment worthwhile
Maybe they're waiting on some guitars as the Hoodoo Guru's said...
mars needs guitars?!?!?!?!
In 1972, the Soviet Union launched the Kosmos 482 lander, a spacecraft designed to reach Venus and land on its surface. The craft never reached Venus, however. The rocket that launched it suffered an anomaly, stranding the probe in an elliptical orbit around Earth where it has remained for over 50 years.
That five-decade stay in space could come to an end today. Kosmos 482 is expected to reenter Earth's atmosphere and possibly crash somewhere on the surface of the planet.

A failed Soviet Venus probe is expected to fall to Earth today, but when and where? Here's what we know
It's still quite uncertain just where and when the craft will fall, although it is expected to reenter around 1:54 a.m. ET (0554 GMT) on May 10, plus or minus nine hours.
