What's Going On With SpaceX's Stainless Steel Starship?
They're working around the clock building this thing, and while it doesn't look like something that would fly, Elon Musk keeps telling us it will. Which leads to questions as to why it's designed the way it is, why the team seem to be working so hard, whether the engine nozzles we can see are attached to real engines? ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVgEKBwE2RM
Look I don't want to keep dissing Boeing's Starliner, so I hope they can fix the problems.
Meanwhile SpaceX's Crew Dragon could fly in May, and Europa Clipper is looking increasinly likely to take a ride on a commercial rocket.

STS-114 Return to flight - I just happened to find some portrait format video of this and thought this was a rare case where a Short actually made sense.

The first Martian meteorite was identified in 1983, and the analysis that traced the rocks back to their origin on Mars via an impact 700,000 years ago. What's amazing is that while we needed rocks returned from the Moon to recognize lunar meteorites we didn't have the luxury with Martian meteorites. The crucial clue wasn't in the minerals, but noble gasses trapped within the rock when it was kicked into space, these gasses matched the isotopic ratios of the atmosphere sampled by Viking back in the 1970's

Finally! This is the last mission, and well it's unlike any of the other missions, there's a lot of talking and exposition while I fly down tunnels to the core of the relic. There are 2 endings offered here and I show you both of them.

Even though SAS was causing me grief, I still think that I'd prefer a more agile upper stage, so, I change the design around and put enough extra fuel onto the lander that It can perform the injection and then dump this prior to landing.
Part II is where the landing actually happens.
