🚀 It’s launch day! In a few hours, Pelican-2 and 36 SuperDoves will take to the skies aboard SpaceX Falcon 9. We’re thrilled for our next-gen, high-resolution satellite to join our growing fleet in orbit. Curious how our new Pelican-2 satellite will revolutionize our capabilities? Check out our latest video to learn more. Then be sure to tune into the livestream from our friends at SpaceX for the big moment! https://lnkd.in/gCgq6f-M

🚀 Spire's six new satellites deployed successfully on yesterday's SpaceX Transporter-12 launch! The new satellites will boost our weather forecasting capabilities and solutions by leveraging reflected GNSS signals to measure ocean winds and soil moisture.

🛰️ Myriota's IoT constellation continues to expand with the latest satellites aboard SpaceX's Transporter-12 mission. In collaboration with Spire, we are increasing the resiliency and performance of our commercial network, ensuring we maintain our commitment to reliable and secure global IoT connectivity. This launch is part of our ongoing strategy to grow our service, keeping us at the forefront of satellite IoT solutions.

SPACEX LAUNCHING 131 PAYLOADS—AND BRINGING THE BOOM Falcon 9 is set to take off Tuesday from Vandenberg, delivering CubeSats, MicroSats, and more into orbit. The mission will feature a rare ground landing, with residents near the base likely hearing sonic booms as the booster returns. This is the booster’s second flight, proving SpaceX’s reusable tech is still the king of the skies. Source: @SpaceX

Return on Investment. Innovation produces ROI: most want to solve problems with money or headcount. Often both. Been there many times, my tin cup waving… Both cost money and reduce the pressure to innovate by reducing pressure to assess focus and eliminate wasted energy. True innovations come via constraints on cost, schedule and headcount - all in the pursuit of ridiculous goals. Pressure. Even when you fail, you’ve probably exceeded everyone else’s wildest dreams. And best of all, you learn faster. You get really good at whatever you’re doing. Innovation is the product of constraints. When you move forward without just pressing the short term easy buttons, growing the team, building more overhead and infrastructure… That is true ROI - in design and in execution. Hats off to our team who continue to execute incredible goals. Their investment is focused time and effort under severe constraints. Huge ROI. #dreambigger

Just weeks after SpaceX stunned audiences with a precision landing of a giant rocket booster, the company conducted another test flight of the most powerful launch vehicle ever built. SpaceX again planned an attempt to steer the booster back into the mechanical arms — or “chopsticks”— of a launch tower, but did not meet the required criteria and abandoned Tuesday's attempt of the booster catch. SpaceX opted to land the Super Heavy booster in the Gulf of Mexico, rather than on land. The Starship spacecraft made a safe landing and stayed intact as it splashed down in the Indian Ocean. https://cnn.it/4fAcyZo
