A lot of stuff happened in our local system this week! In Traffic the Beresheet suffered a rapid unintended kinetic disassembly and Falcon Heavy launched, landed and then the center core tipped over.
In news: The Stratolaunch Carrier Aircraft took to the skies and we get to see the image of a black hole for the first time!
As always we wrap the show up with space weather.
Sorry this is later than normal, but we had a lot going on and I wanted to get it in the show. This week we have NASA's plans to send humans back to the moon in 5 years. Will it be on SLS or a commercial rocket?
Asteroid Bennu looks to be a lot more complex than originally thought, and that may spell trouble for OSIRIS-REx.
And what is the latest way that space wants to kill you? Superbugs!
In Traffic this week we had: Vega rocket with PRISMA OneWeb OS-M launch with Cubesats Electron launch with R3D2
And as always we close out our show with the latest Space Weather from Dr. Tamitha Skov.

Momentus is building the in-space equivalent of the connecting flight. Use a big rocket to fly to a common orbit on a cheap rideshare, then use their in-space rocket to get your satellite to any custom orbit 10 times cheaper than what has ever been possible.
