Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

In a new Starship update, SpaceX has anyone who might be concerned that the sonic booms from its Starship rocket will not be harmful to anyone present in the surrounding areas. Sonic booms are a characteristic of SpaceX's rockets during a landing since they displace the air around them in specific ways. With Starship being even larger than the Falcon 9, SpaceX has confirmed that the rocket's size means that its sonic boom will be louder and larger than the one produced by the Falcon 9 rocket. Its latest announcement follows after the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) released a draft […]
SpaceX's chief Elon Musk has shared his predictions for the upcoming test flight of the Starship rocket in Texas. SpaceX is due to conduct Starship Flight 5 soon, and according to Musk, the test could take place late next month or in early September, depending on the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) approval. For Flight 5, SpaceX has upped the stakes by quite a bit as it will try to catch the 232 feet tall Super Heavy booster with the launch tower's catch arms. These arms are responsible for stacking the second stage Starship on the booster during pre launch preparations, […]
During a mission overview media conference for an upcoming Crew Dragon launch to the International Space Station (ISS), NASA's program manager for the Commercial Crew Program shared additional insights for the reasons behind a rare SpaceX Falcon 9 second stage anomaly earlier this month. The anomaly led to a grounding of SpaceX's workhorse rocket, and the firm announced yesterday that it is ready to fly again tomorrow after completing the required investigations to help the FAA determine that the fault does not pose a risk to human safety. The briefing was for NASA and SpaceX's Crew-9 mission, SpaceX's fourth Dragon […]
After a rare flight anomaly earlier this month which led to the loss of its second stage Falcon 9, SpaceX is ready to fly its workhorse rocket once again on Saturday according to a fresh update from the company. In an X post and a press release, SpaceX highlighted that the reason behind the engine anomaly, which "damaged the the engine hardware" was a faulty sense line for the second stage engine's liquid oxygen supply. As part of remediation, SpaceX will remove this hardware from the second stage since it is not necessary for the Falcon 9's safety profile. Additionally, […]
SpaceX is moving forward with preparations for Starship flight 5 after having moved out the second stage Starship spacecraft from its processing site on a mobile static fire stand. After the fourth Starship flight last year, which was notable for its forward flap catching fire during reentry, SpaceX decided to replace all of the ship's thousands of heat shield tiles to prepare for the fifth flight. By the looks of it, the ship might be heading for a static fire attempt before the fifth test flight to complete another pre flight test. SpaceX's Starship Flight 5 Likely To Take Place […]
SpaceX's brand new spacesuits developed for extra vehicular activity (EVA) for the first commercial spacewalk planned as part of the Polaris Program have completed acceptance testing. SpaceX, as part of its NASA missions, makes its own spacesuits for astronauts to cover their needs inside the Crew Dragon spacecraft. These are pressurized spacesuits that are designed to keep the crew safe in case their ship loses pressurization. On the other hand, the new suits, developed by SpaceX for its private astronaut mission, will allow astronauts to venture out of the Crew Dragon and conduct their spacewalk. SpaceX's Spacesuits Will Help Monitor […]
Officials from NASA and SpaceX have shared fresh details about their plan to de-orbit the International Space Station (ISS) at the end of its operational life in 2030. SpaceX was awarded an $843 million contract by NASA late last month to develop a ship that will dock to the ISS and push it towards the Earth. Details revealed in NASA's selection document for the award revealed that only SpaceX and Northrop Grumman were the final contestants for the award, with SpaceX edging out because of its existing strengths of the Dragon platform. NASA shared during a media conference earlier today […]
