Its been ... a year ... but we wanted to surprise you just before Christmas with a new pin! Say hello to New Glenn! And depending on shipping, you might be able receive it before Christmas if you hurry up and order! loom.ly/O__-1BA
I guess I'm growing a bit of an @LaunchPins collection now. Newest addition, an RL10E. Really good stuff
We have a new pin drop in the store today! The RL10E-1, the engine used to power @ulalaunch Vulcan's 2nd stage. Shiny black nickle makes the engine shine! launchpins.com/products/rl-1…
Check out our Orion pin in DC! Courtesy of the amazing @bonzack!
I am told that when most people go on vacation they wear bathing suits.
Shout out to Launch Pins! Getting compliments for the big Orion on my lapel.
@LaunchPins
Congrats team Blue @blueorigin on a successful launch and landing!! 🥳
Anyone have any additional photos of an @L3HarrisTech RL-10-e variant? This is the only one we can find but could use some others for ... reasons 😉 Who knows, maybe if someone posts a good one, they might get something in the mail in the near future ...
Perhaps @torybruno has some from the ones used on Vulcan … unless they are too secretive? 😭
You know it’s time to make sure you have your New Glenn pin … launchpins.com/products/new-…

Four helicopters, 5 planes, and 550 people on the ship, ready to support Artemis II splashdown!
This song choice is certainly approved by our kids too … but the chorus … pleeeaasseeee 😂
The Artemis 2 crew is officially awake onboard Orion ‘Integrity.’ Their song of choice this morning? “Pink Pony Club” by @ChappellRoan.
However, the DJ at Mission Control Center Houston didn’t quite let it get to the crew’s favorite part of the song.
Watch/listen:

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.
ALT A full disk image of Earth, as seen from the Orion capsule. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. From about 8 to 9 o'clock, a large brown landmass is Africa, with the Iberian peninsula twinkling with lights just where the planet curves. At the 1 o'clock spot, aurora glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space. Credit: NASA/Reid Weisman

Nominal translunar injection burn complete. The Artemis II crew is officially on the way to the Moon.
America is back in the business of sending astronauts to the Moon. This time, farther than ever before.
On the @NASA live feed, the chatter from the crew to the ground before going to bed, sounded like they are having an environmental issue. Comfort related, so perhaps air temp? Has there been more information on this?
