  • Starship Setback, Stealth Solar Storm, and Mars' Hidden Water

    Starship Setback, Stealth Solar Storm, and Mars' Hidden Water
    Nov 22 2025
    SpaceX's Starship Booster Anomaly: SpaceX faces a significant setback as Booster 18 of its next-generation Starship program suffers a catastrophic rupture during a routine gas system pressure test. The failure of a composite overwrapped pressure vessel has left the company with no completed flight-ready boosters, prompting a shift in focus to Booster 19. Fortunately, this incident occurred during ground testing, allowing for necessary improvements before future flights.Stealth Solar Storm Strikes Earth: On November 20, a stealth solar storm arrived unexpectedly, creating stunning auroras at lower latitudes. Unlike typical coronal mass ejections, this event was difficult to predict, highlighting challenges in space weather forecasting as scientists work to better understand these quiet yet impactful phenomena.Innovative Balloon-Assisted Rocket Launch: Welsh startup B2Space successfully tested its unique launch system, combining a high-altitude balloon with a solid fuel rocket. This innovative approach allows for significant fuel savings by launching the rocket from a high altitude, with plans to scale up for operational missions targeting small satellite deployments.New Insights into Ancient Mars: Research from New York University, Abu Dhabi, reveals that ancient Mars may have been habitable for longer than previously thought. Evidence from the Curiosity rover suggests that groundwater interactions with sand dunes in Gale Crater could have supported life, extending the timeline for liquid water on the planet.BepiColombo's Journey to Mercury: The BepiColombo mission is just one year away from reaching Mercury after a seven-year journey. With multiple flybys completed, the mission is set to provide unprecedented insights into Mercury's magnetic environment and surface features through the collaboration of two spacecraft studying the planet simultaneously.For more cosmic updates, visit our website at astronomydaily.io.
