SpaceX’s Next Big Trick: Catch the Starship Upper Stage With ‘Chopsticks’

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-10-22 18:46:04

SpaceX finally broke out of a serious Starship slump on Tuesday, acing the rocket’s 10th flight after months of failed attemps. Now, CEO Elon Musk has set his sights on the next big challenge: catching Starship’s upper stage with Mechazilla’s “chopstick” arms. In an X post on Wednesday, August 27, Musk said the next opportunities to attempt this feat would likely be flights 13 through 15, depending on how well V3—the next iteration of Starship—performs.

Starship’s heat shield appears to have performed quite well in test

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-23 06:10:39

One of the more curious aspects of the 10th flight of SpaceX's Starship rocket on Tuesday was the striking orange discoloration of the second stage. This could be observed on video taken from a buoy near the landing site as the vehicle made a soft landing in the Indian Ocean. This color—so different from the silvery skin and black tiles that cover Starship's upper stage—led to all sorts of speculation. Had heating damaged the stainless steel skin? Had the vehicle's tiles been shucked off, leavi

PONTIAC, Michigan—Traveling a fair amount for work outside of major metros requires relying on rental cars.

The thing that surprised me most about traveling to China back in 2019 was how quiet it was. I expected chaos, noise, pollution—all the stuff you associate with a developing country. Instead, I found electric bikes gliding silently through tree-lined streets. We lived there for five months until COVID hit. About a week ago, I went back to visit Yunnan.

The Genetic Trick That Helped Humans Ride Horses

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-10-25 06:00:55

Roughly 4,500 years ago, humans forged a bond that would shape the history of our species. The domestication of horses led to significant advancements in transportation, hunting, and warfare, literally carrying human society into the modern era. Despite how influential horses have been for humans, scientists still have many fundamental questions about their domestication. New research published Thursday, August 28, in the journal Science, offers new insight into the genetic shifts that helped t

With Starship Flight 10, SpaceX prioritized resilience over perfection

SpaceX has long marketed Starship as a fully and rapidly reusable rocket that’s designed to deliver thousands of pounds of cargo to Mars and make life multiplanetary. But reusability at scale means a space vehicle that can tolerate mishaps and faults, so that a single failure doesn’t spell a mission-ending catastrophe. The 10th test flight on Tuesday evening demonstrated SpaceX’s focus on fault tolerance. In a post-flight update, SpaceX said the test stressed “the limits of vehicle capabilities

The first stars may not have been as uniformly massive as we thought

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-28 06:16:33

For decades, astronomers have wondered what the very first stars in the universe were like. These stars formed new chemical elements, which enriched the universe and allowed the next generations of stars to form the first planets. The first stars were initially composed of pure hydrogen and helium, and they were massive—hundreds to thousands of times the mass of the Sun and millions of times more luminous. Their short lives ended in enormous explosions called supernovae, so they had neither the

For years, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has been stridently glib when his rockets explode during tests, quipping that the blasts were "just a scratch," a "minor setback," or a "rapid unscheduled disassembly." He's still deploying these jokey ripostes, but there's reason to believe the walls may be starting to close in for SpaceX's efforts on Starship, as more and more of the ultra-expensive spacecraft fail in spectacular public view.
