SPACEX STATIC FIRE: There will not be a static fire of Crew Dragon today, apparently the test has slipped to no earlier than Nov 8th. In better news #SpaceX team has completed 13 successful tests in a row of upgraded Mark 3 parachutes for CD. #NASA #Space #mars #Science #ElonMusk

Test of Crew Dragon’s upgraded launch escape system ahead of static fire and in-flight abort tests – altogether we are conducting hundreds of tests to verify the system's advanced capabilities to carry astronauts to safety in the unlikely event of an emergency

Replying to @NASASpaceflight @IanPineapple
Yeah, will be Raptor vertical test stand. Hopefully allows simplification of Raptor design, as pump shaft wear & drainage is better in vertical config. Also, more representive of flight. Test as you fly …

POLAR LAUNCH from CAPE CANAVERAL! #SpaceX will launch @SAOCOM1B next year in southern polar orbit launch corridor, avoiding eastern part of Florida and western Bahamas. This will be the first polar launch from Florida in 60 years since the 1960 Thor launch. #Falcon9 will RTLS.

I can confirm that SpaceX currently plans to launch SAOCOM 1B from Cape Canaveral instead of Vandenberg. This will be the first use of the southern polar corridor to reach orbit from the Cape since 1960.

UPDATE: In less that 1 day Go Ms Chief has gotten all new arms attached. This is obviously record pace for SpaceX and after many days of sitting idle they have shown what they can do when needed. Next...netting. #SpaceX #NASA #space #ElonMusk #science #mars @SpaceXFleet

FINALLY: Go Ms Chief finally gets work started on the new arms being erected for netting to be installed. At the pace they are working this morning I have no doubt that the job will be complete long before the next launch #SpaceX #NASA #space #ElonMusk #science #mars @SpaceXFleet
