SpaceX has been at the center of headline-making space activity this weekend. Most notably, SpaceX’s Crew-10 astronauts—Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers of NASA, Takuya Onishi of JAXA, and Kirill Peskov from Roscosmos—returned to Earth on August 9 after a remarkable 148 days aboard the International Space Station, making history as the first NASA Commercial Crew to splash down off the coast of California instead of Florida. This reflects recent decisions to move splashdowns west for safety, following concerns about falling debris over populated areas. According to ABC News, SpaceX’s Endurance capsule, floating down beneath four main parachutes, was recovered from the Pacific off southern California and the vibrant “welcome home” from Mission Control captured the significance of the moment. NASA officials highlighted the crew’s scientific achievements: studying everything from brain-blood flow to lunar navigation techniques, while the astronauts themselves looked forward to home comforts like showers and burgers.
Social media lit up with footage of the reentry, with NASA, SpaceX, and even JAXA sharing real-time videos and astronaut selfies on X and Instagram. Clips of Kirill Peskov waving as he exited the capsule have already gone viral. NASA live-streamed the splashdown, and fans commented in droves, congratulating the crew for their safe return and the pioneering West Coast landing.
Just days before, an eagerly anticipated Falcon 9 launch—the KF-02 mission for Amazon’s Project Kuiper, carrying 24 satellites—was scrubbed at the last minute due to tricky Florida weather. YouTube channels like SciNews and commentators on X reported on the dramatic countdown halt only 45 seconds before lift-off at Cape Canaveral. SpaceX fans debated whether this was just bad luck or another example of Florida’s unpredictable launch conditions, but the excitement for the rescheduled attempt remains palpable online.
Meanwhile, SpaceX pushed back its next Starlink launch out of Vandenberg Space Force Base to Monday evening. The plan: launch 24 satellites with a five-time-reused Falcon 9 booster, then land it on a Pacific droneship. Local outlets like KSBY and launch enthusiasts online are already buzzing, with watch parties forming for the live webcast and expressing pride in the company’s growing West Coast presence.
Currently, SpaceX is also in the spotlight over negotiations with California officials about expanding launch rates and landing activities. According to Freedom1400, out of 38 US launches so far this year, 33 have been SpaceX missions. The Air Force is reportedly looking to double SpaceX’s landing events annually, a move which has some local communities demanding public hearings about the site expansion, fueling debates across social platforms.
SpaceX, its mission teams, fans, and critics have made this a memorable week for spaceflight. For the latest, follow NASA, SpaceX, and mission crew on X, and don’t miss out on the upcoming launches.
