“Lot to learn on this flight [@PettitFrontier] SpaceX’s mission profile for Starship Flight 8. It will be eventful. Booster catch, Starlink deployment, in-space engine relight, entry & flip. I called @astro_Pettit and we’re optimistic the ISS will have brief in-flight visibility. And I will be at Starbase. Let’s do this. )”

“SpaceX is accelerating rapidly. When Starship is launching several times a day in a few years, SpaceX will be ~99% of all Earth payload mass to orbit, even if the others triple their current launch rate.

The eight Chinese launchers add up to 8.6%. Looking into the graph's magnifying box, IDF just nudged past Rocket Lab. https://x.com/i/web/status/1994495568291532883”
