The SpaceX cryo tanks that departed KSC via barge 2 weeks ago have crossed the Gulf and arrived in Texas - but not Starbase! They appear to be unloaded near the city of Victoria. It's not unreasonable to think these may be trucked the 3.5 hours north to SpaceX's McGregor facility.

SpaceX Dragon recovery ship Megan departed Canaveral this morning for the Gulf, to support the Crew-9/Crew-10 rotation. With twin ship Shannon now located in California, going into this rotation not 100% certain how primary and backup splashdown sites will work. nsf.live

The first of two cargo ships expected at Port Canaveral this weekend has arrived, carrying a single cryogenic tank. The second ship, arriving Sunday, is also set to visit Port of Brownsville next week (h/t CowboyDanPaasch), which is a bit of a clue as to who ordered these... nsf.live/spacecoast

A look at the barge Oceanus, which Rocket Lab has acquired for conversion into a landing platform for the Neutron rocket. Built in 2010 and 400ft long x 105ft wide, the barge is slightly longer than Blue Origin's Jacklyn, both outclassing SpaceX's trio of 300ft long droneships.

A revised render from Rocket Lab for their upcoming Neutron droneship! Per the linked press release, the company has acquired a stock barge (photographed) and will convert it, much like SpaceX's approach. 'Return On Investment' is a fantastic name. 10/10 no notes.

It's a Bahamas Party as SpaceX will land a Falcon 9 rocket within the country for the very first time! Just Read the Instructions is on station ~20 miles west of Lookout Cay (Disney's Private Cruise Resort). Bob is hunting 30 miles south to recover the fairing.

The Port of Los Angeles is still determining the future of the site that was briefly leased by SpaceX for a planned Starship manufacturing facility. SpaceX leased the site from 2018-19 and then was reconsidering again in 2020 when plans were dropped just a month after approval. t.co/vkIsTGaUnV

Blue Ghost and Blue Ring are two unrelated missions. Blue Ring is being launched by a company called Blue Origin. Not every mission with the word blue is associated with Blue Origin. Blue Ghost is a lunar lander not to be confused with Blue Moon which is a lander by Blue Origin.
