Weekly Space Report: Starship, PACE, Dreamchaser, and JWST

Starbase was as busy as usual, though hints from FAA reports indicate that SpaceX isn’t quite ready for FT3. End of February seems to be the consensus forecast.

Detailed discussion of this week’s PACE spacecraft and its science capabilities.

Dreamchaser is advancing through its milestones for launch readiness: vacuum testing is up next.

The James Web Space Telescope has produced some fantasticly detailed views of very distant spiral galaxies–galaxies that the Hubble telescope could barely resolve. The JWST infra-red capabilities are crucial to extreme distant star (galaxy) gazing.
