The spacecraft that will fly SpaceX's first-ever crewed mission has made it to Florida.

A SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule arrived on Florida's Space Coast on Thursday (Feb. 13), NASA officials said, completing a cross-country trek from the company's California headquarters.

"The spacecraft now will undergo final testing and prelaunch processing in a SpaceX facility on nearby Cape Canaveral Air Force Station," NASA officials said in an update.

Technicians at a SpaceX processing facility at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station can now start prepping the vehicle for the launch that will kick off Demo-2, a historic test mission that will send NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken to the International Space Station (ISS).

Key Points

•   Virgin Galactic shares swung back-and-forth in heavy trading Thursday, with the stock giving dropping midday after gaining.

•   The space tourism stock earlier soared past $40 to a new record.

•   Virgin Galactic’s rally has taken even the most bullish Wall Street analysts by surprise.

Virgin Galactic shares swung back-and-forth in heavy trading Thursday, with the stock giving dropping midday after climbing earlier.

Shares had jumped more than 13% and soared past $40 to a new high, heading for its ninth consecutive day of gains. But the stock later reversed and fell, dropping as much as 17% to about under $32.

The space tourism’s stock has climbed more than 350% in the past three months, with a large portion of the gains coming in the past two weeks. Virgin Galactic has become Wall Street’s favorite speculative play. In the first hour of trading on Thursday, more than 40 million Virgin Galactic shares traded hands, several times its daily average volume.

@EdinVA

My own parents,born before 1915,never came out and said it was fake,but they were HUGELY skeptical. In their defense,neither had an education (my father couldn't even read or write because he had to quit school in the 3rd grade and work to support his family),and they grew up in a time when having electricity and running water in your house was a marvel.

Not hard to understand why they were so skeptical when you look back and see how much the world has changed in just the last 100 years. Truthfully,probably more than it had changed in the thousand years previous. That's a LOT to take in for people becoming of age as it is happening.

SpaceX's Starship SN1 prototype appears to burst during pressure test

Space.com 2/29/2020

SpaceX's new Starship prototype appeared to burst during a pressure test late Friday (Feb. 28), rupturing under the glare of flood lights and mist at the company's south Texas facility.

The Starship SN1 prototype, which SpaceX moved to a launchpad near its Boca Chica, Texas, assembly site earlier this week, blew apart during a liquid nitrogen pressure test according to a video captured by SPadre.com.

A separate video posted by NASASpaceflight.com member BocaChicaGal clearly shows the Starship SN1's midsection buckle during the test, then shoot upward before crashing back to the ground.
