Just as Firefly was preparing for the return to flight following the FLTA006 failure, the first stage for FLTA007 was lost in an anomaly on the test stand, resulting in a huge fireball. Really unfortunate to see, and hopefully they can recover quickly.

It's kind of amazing to see stuff like this after the anti-reuse attitude of European space institutions and legacy contractors for so long. Now they're like, OK, I guess we'll try to build a mini Starship.

Before anyone jumps on Rory, he does clarify he wishes Artemis had the launch cadence of Apollo.
And he's right, which leads to a conversation about Apollo's budget vs Artemis's budget as a % of government spending, or a % of US GDP.
Appreciate your support of Orion!

I just received the scans of my latest roll of film, including a 30 minute exposure of Andromeda and a 1 hour exposure of the Orion nebula, all manually guided, no electronics in the light path except for the illuminated reticle eyepiece. Mikey Smith has some 'splaining to do.
Maarvin, the LR11000 has been laid down. Unsure at this time whether this is for maintenance, an early opportunity taken to prepare for the upcoming launch, or for re-config, possibly signalling the addition of the SQD arm in the near future.
