Space freighters. Scenes from this morning at the Kennedy Space Center turn basin, where NASA’s Pegasus and SpaceX’s Marmac 31 "You’ll Thank Me Later" barges are docked. This is the first occasion they've been seen together in such close proximity, offering a rare opportunity to witness two vessels purpose-built to transport large spaceflight hardware. 📸 - @NASASpaceflight nsf.live/spacecoast

Capping off a busy two days at Starbase, Ship 43 is back on the ground after catch-related testing similar to what Ship 42 did. Here's a timelapse of its day. I bet it had a nice view of the Ship 42 static fire from up there! 🎥: nsf.live/starbase | @NASASpaceflight

Big move, bigger mission! The Artemis III Space Launch System core stage moved to the transfer aisle at NASA Kennedy. Next up – teams will lift and integrate the massive 212-foot-rocket with the solid rocket boosters as we prepare for the next giant leap in lunar exploration.

Nice win! Good stuff all around. Defense was dominant in the redzone & the offense saw marked improvement. Would like that to continue with a very important game on the horizon… 5-2. Bring on the Chiefs at Mile High. #BroncosCountry
Got the W in the desert!
