In what is a shocking development, the White House will pull Jared Isaacman’s NASA Administrator nomination for unknown reasons ahead of its full Senate vote next week. This opens the door for another individual to step into the role that has been left vacant for over 100 days in one of the most troubling times in the agency’s existence.

Last night, SpaceX launched its ninth Starship rocket from Starbase, Texas. While this time the rocket made it further than the previous two, it was far from perfect. So, was the mission successful or another straight-up failure? Don’t bother coming home.
