Booster separation complete.
Booster catch in 60km to landing
I'm hearing they lost comms. will update when i know more.
Main rocket "ship" lost comms, trying to make it to Indian Ocean.
It's a new main ship rocket that appears to be malfunctioning, according to lost comms call.
All comms with ship, upper stage lost.
Current call on rocket,
"we are assuming the upper stage is lost"
Comms radio silence at 20 minutes into flight.
She gone baby.
Any bets where it's going to land?
Earth, Moon, Mars, China took over control?
Confirmed, she gone.
Ship lost contact 8.5 minutes into flight coming into main engine cut off phase.
They've gone to look for it.
Unkown at this point, looks likely it may have blown up.
Well, according to what we're being told.
It's just as possible its mission is a success but being kept hidden.
After all, who knows what equipment Trump and Mil are putting up there.
KEK, in 8.5 minutes, it's a long way from CA.
Yep, that could be it.
Will they be in charge of moving the studio's to Texas?

2nd Booster tower catch:
2nd Booster tower catch:
Sorry double, glitching shilly mistake.
at 7 min 32 seconds the ship is still accelerating,
doing 16958 KM/H
at a height of 140 KM
This is approx 1 minute before comms loss is announced to have occured..
>>22366065 Possibly, but what satellites sit at 140 KM height?
This was likely Elons ship at about the 8.5 minute mark into flight.
From a quick looksy, it would appear that the ISS
is at the lowest earth orbit at 350 KM.
Can anyone confirm if there are lower orbit items than that?
Whatever it was, it was only around 140 or 150 KM up.
Temporary space lasers?

What satellites or objects sent by man into orbit sit at around 150 km elevation above sea level?
Answer
At an altitude of approximately 150 km above sea level, the environment is within the lower part of the thermosphere, where atmospheric drag makes it challenging for satellites to maintain stable orbits for extended periods. Here's what you might find at or around this altitude:
Short-lived Satellites: Occasionally, satellites might be placed in orbits around this altitude for very specific, short-duration missions. Due to high atmospheric drag, these satellites would have a very limited operational life, often measured in days or weeks before they re-enter the atmosphere.
Debris: There could be small pieces of space debris from previous missions that have decayed from higher orbits and are now at this altitude, though they would quickly re-enter Earth's atmosphere.
Temporary Objects: Sometimes, objects like rocket stages or other space hardware might briefly pass through this altitude during re-entry phases or if they were deployed for very low Earth orbit experiments, but they wouldn't stay there long due to atmospheric drag.
Scientific Experiments: There have been some experiments, like those involving ionospheric research or to study atmospheric drag, where satellites or probes might be deployed at such low altitudes for very brief periods to gather data before re-entry.
However, to give a precise answer or list:
No operational satellites are typically maintained at 150 km due to the rapid orbital decay.
The International Space Station (ISS) orbits at a much higher altitude, typically between 330 km and 435 km.
CubeSats or other nanosatellites for educational or experimental purposes might target slightly higher orbits, generally starting from 200 km and above to extend their lifespan.
If you're looking for specifics about satellites or objects at this exact altitude, I would need to search for any recent or historical missions that might have used such an orbit for very short-term objectives. Would you like me to look for any such specific instances or further details on this topic?
Question: What did Bezos Blue Origin put into space the other day?
Wasn't it a NASA conjoined mission?
It's almost within range of the altitude Musks rocket got to.
GROK
How high did Jeff Bezos blue origin rocket get to a few days ago?

Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin successfully launched its New Glenn rocket on January 16, 2025, for its first test flight. According to the information available, the rocket reached an altitude of 127 miles (approximately 204 kilometers).
Elon, Boss, got any dirt on AUS eSafety ministry of truth?

@FranMooMoo
Australia's PM has been blustering about foreign interference regarding Elon Musk. Yet he's totally fine giving an eSafety Commissar, who was born in the US & holds dual US citizenship, the power to censor Australians. He does nothing when she makes political comments about world affairs. Her conflicts of interest & foreign allegiance should make her unfit to be in such a position of power but as long as she tows Albo's line he ignores this obvious hypocrisy.

Yes, the plank you need to remove before talking about the spec in your bothers eye.
