Home » Space » SLS NASA Artemis 2 Fails Wet Rehearsal Test With Continued Helium Leaks – Earliest Launch April 2026 SLS still has helium leaks. Helium leaks have been a problem since the Space Shuttle days. It is so cold that it is hard to work with. The picture is of the SLS rolling back to the Vehicle Assembly Building in 2022. Rolling back to the bay for work will look the same in 2026. – The ICPS helium bottles are used to purge the engines, as well as for LH2 and LOX tank pressurizati...

Home » Artificial intelligence » Lemonade Insurance Integrates With Tesla and Tesla FSD Lemonade charges half of the per mile insurance for Tesla cars when Tesla FSD is active. Lemonade collaborates directly with Tesla to access real-time vehicle telemetry data, which allows them to precisely differentiate between FSD-engaged miles and human-driven miles (down to the second, in some descriptions). This means no separate physical device (like a plug-in tracker used in some standard pay-per-mile...

SpaceX Booster 18 suffered an anomaly during gas system pressure testing… No propellant was on the vehicle, and engines were not yet installed. The SpaceX teams need time to investigate before they are confident of the cause. This is not unusual for a first-of-type article. SpaceX has bounced back from worse and iterates extremely quickly. This will have some weeks a maybe months of delays Booster 18 suffered an anomaly during gas system pressure testing that we were conducting in advance of s...

SpaceX Booster 18 suffered an anomaly during gas system pressure testing… No propellant was on the vehicle, and engines were not yet installed. The SpaceX teams need time to investigate before they are confident of the cause. There were no engines inside. There was no damage to the site. This is not unusual for a first-of-type article. SpaceX has bounced back from worse and iterates extremely quickly. This will have some weeks of delays. Booster 18 suffered an anomaly during gas system pressur...
