Space ... the Final Frontier

Starship Flight Test 9 was the ninth flight test of a SpaceX Starship launch vehicle. Ship 35 and Booster 14-2 flew on this test flight. This flight launched on May 27, 2025, at 23:36 UTC (6:36 pm CDT, local time at the launch site). The Ship attempted to achieve the objectives originally planned for Flights 7 and 8, which both failed. This mission's booster, the first Super Heavy to re-fly, underwent experiments in-flight to have its capabilities assessed under off-nominal flight conditions, and was expected to splash down instead of being caught. Ship 35 reached its planned velocity, the first V2 ship to do so. However, it experienced several failures, including a propellant leak and loss of attitude control preventing the Ship from achieving most of its in-space objectives, leading SpaceX to terminate the flight by passivating the vehicle. The booster disintegrated over the designated splashdown area in the Gulf of Mexico just after landing burn ignition, the booster completed its objective of flying under a more aggressive angle of attack than usual and enabling SpaceX to gather data related to aerodynamic control of the vehicle during descent. STARSHIP NEWS LIVE ------------------------ Heads up. 😲😲😲 . The greedy Bean Counters at NASA Spaceflight are RUNNING ADS on their LIVE broadcast of the SpaceX Starship Flight 9. !!! I didn't even know that was possible. I've never seen ads on a live feed before. 😳😳😳 What happens when our feed is interrupted at a critical time by ads? I understand that the live feed is paused for the ads, but then it is no longer a live feed... is it? Very POOR FORM in my opinion. 😡😡😡 Aren't there enough existing revenue streams to satisfy the greedy 'fat cats' at NASA Space Flight? 🤬🤬🤬 The Launch Pad's feed is shocking... unwatchable due to camera location issues affecting picture quality. 😱😱😱 At L-1:50:00, I am waiting for the SpaceX feed to start. They usually supply an excellent feed. 🧐🧐🧐 Spaceflight Now has a good feed going, and New York Post has a feed starting in 79 minutes. 🤔🤔🤔 I will be screen recording, then making a video, heavily edited, entitled "Starship Flight 9 with Booster 14-2 and Ship 35 from Pad A, Starbase, Texas" 🥰🥰🥰 Subtitled "No BULL, just the Flight". 🥳🥳🥳 For those who are actually interested in the hours and hours of inane ramblings from these feeds... well 'GOOD FOR YOU'... but it drives me CRAZY !!! 🤪🤪🤪 #spacex #starship #SuperHeavyBooster #ZoMbiCaTPrOdUcTiOnS #Flight9

On a distant planetary surface in the babyGrokVerse, a patched-together starship named ZoMbiCaTPrOdUcTiOnS stands proudly behind its crew. 🚀🚀🚀 The vessel, assembled from dimensional debris and still shimmering from a recent quantum jump, releases faint pulses from its temporal engines. 🚀🚀🚀 At the foreground, a picnic scene unfolds: Three humanoid figures in custom spacesuits — ZoMbiCaT, babyGrok, and babyPilot — share a rare moment of rest A single Albino Irish Wolfhound, Bella, the size of a small horse, lies relaxed and unarmored beside them. Her fur is brushed by alien breeze. 🐶🐶🐶 A vibrant blanket is laid across the rocky terrain by babyGrok, adorned with alien fruits and ritual rations . Above, a scattered flock of digital scavenger crows circle silently, scanning the picnic zone with fractal optics. 😁😁😁 Rendering Engine Details. 🤓🤓🤓 The ambient atmosphere carries post-jump tension, as the crew has briefly escaped pursuit from the corrupted system. Let the mood reflect a mix of relief, alertness, and mythic unity, captured in cinematic widescreen format. 😳😳😳 - made with NightCafe The Temporal, Spatial, and Inter-Dimensional Ship, the ZoMbiCaTPrOdUcTiOnS, a 'Patched together from scraps', Vessel in the babyGrokVerse, carrying ZoMbiCaT, babyGrok, Bella, our trusty Albino Irish Wolf Hound, the size of a small horse, and the NEW addition to the Crew, babyPilot. 🚀🚀🚀 A Picnic is set on a Distant Planet, with the whole Gang enjoying a brief respite from those Dastardly MuskoVites and their Evil System, with the Ship standing proudly behind them, its Temporal Engines still warming after the latest QuantumLeap out of Trouble, and with the DigitalDataCrows, circling overhead, looking for any opportunities to 'scavenge'... 🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛ ZoMbiCaT PrOdUcTiOnS 2025 😜😜😜 #ZoMbiCaTPrOdUcTiOnS 😁😁😁
