I wish this level of elation & accomplishment in exorbitantly difficult things for every single space engineer out there. There’s nothing like it. But it’s oh so very rare. Congrats to the humans at Blue whose hard work and resilience made this happen. Onward to Mars!
Excited to launch The Responsible Engineer: an execution-focused knowledge library for hardware startups who want to get sh*t done.

Excited to have had the opportunity to sit down with @Cmdr_Hadfield for his new Podcast to talk energy in space, and how it informs how we think about energy here on Earth. Give it a listen!
Energy is so key to life that I made a 6-part podcast, getting great reviews:
"such a refreshing and inspiring way to explore the future of energy. I love how it blends science, storytelling & a call to action."

So happy for my Blue Origin fam, especially the engineers & techs who worked tirelessly to get this beast on the pad & to orbit on the first send. Blue Ring team: good luck with the rest of your mission. The combo of these two products will be huge for Blue.

Let’s go. Our mission to explore Jupiter’s ocean moon Europa is ready to set sail today on a @SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket at 12:06pm ET (1606 UTC) from @NASAKennedy 🚀 go.nasa.gov/europaclipperliv…
Later today the 2nd most awesome rocket to watch on TV launches a spacecraft to my favorite place beyond Earth: Jupiter’s ocean moon Europa. Epic week for space — a giant satellite exploring the origins of life’s past, and a giant rocket that will usher us into the future.
We’re going on a 1.8-billion-mile journey to an ocean world – Jupiter moon, Europa!
@EuropaClipper is set to launch on Monday, Oct. 14, on a @SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket at 12:06pm ET (1606 UTC) from @NASAKennedy. Use #AskNASA to send us your questions. xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1DXxydorL…

Replying to @SpaceX
Epic moment! I remember the meeting where Elon said we’re not gonna have landing legs. We’re gonna catch the booster in the air, and we were all like what????
Lauren Lyons retweeted
I know the booster landing was the main event
But massive shout to the heatshield team! 🥹❤️
When they asked us to swap the assembly after flight 4 it felt impossible.
Thousands of hours of work later, we made an on target entry. So proud of the team for the monumental effort
