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 […]

After a notable pause, SpaceX has finally broken the silence for the launch date of its fifth Starship test flight, which appears to ensure that 2024 will see just three launches. In an update on its website, the firm shared that as per its communications with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Starship Flight 5 will receive a launch license in November at the earliest. This marks a significant delay from the multiple estimates shared by Elon Musk after Starship's fourth integrated test flight. According to SpaceX, Starship Super Heavy's interstage ring and tower catch are to blame for the delay. […]
SpaceX's fifth Starship test flight will most likely take place in September, according to fresh comments from CEO Elon Musk. Starship last flew in June as IFT-4, which marked the first successful soft splashdowns of the booster and the second stage ship. Since then, SpaceX has been busy developing its rockets for Flight 5, and as part of these preparations, it has tested the second stage's engines and the launch tower for the highly anticipated and risky tower catch. This catch is the likely reason for the delay since it deviates from previous launches' flight profiles, and previous statements made […]
SpaceX's Starship lunar lander for NASA's Artemis program might be too big to comfortably dock with the space agency's planned lunar space station, according to a fresh report issued by the Government Accountability Office (GAO). The GAO undertook a study of the space station's mass constraints, and it concluded that two of its primary components, namely the habitation and logistics outpost (HALO) and the power and propulsion element (PPE), had a combined mass that was greater than their target. It was also found that the PPE might be unable to correctly steer the vehicle in case large vehicles such as […]
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, […]
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 […]
Ahead of its fifth Starship test flight in Texas, and after it transported the Super Heavy booster to the pad in the evening Eastern time yesterday, SpaceX lifted the rocket on the launch mount, shows footage from local media. After a brief pause in testing activities in Texas, SpaceX has picked up the pace with its Starship tests. The fifth test will be the first time the firm attempts to catch the booster with its launch tower catch arms, and potential tests for the booster after today's lift could include pressurization tests or a static fire. SpaceX Gears Up For […]
