The redesigned SpaceX Starship heavy rocket got off the ground and seems to have done everything right (including blowing up in a deliberate ball of fire at the end).
In space entertainment news, a new show similar to For All Mankind called Star City starts next week, but it’s the space race from the alternative view of the Soviets. For All Mankind already appropriated the Russian launchpad explosion so I don’t know if the new show will dramatize that, but I imagine they’ll go into the only actual space tragedy that occurred outside of earth’s atmosphere: Soyuz 11.
