ULA is over? Two years ago, Elon Musk predicted that United Launch Alliance (ULA) would be "dead as a doornail."

Two years ago, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk boldly predicted that United Launch Alliance (ULA) would be "dead as a doornail". Now, it appears his prophecy is coming to fruition.

According to three sources who spoke to Ars Technica, ULA is likely to be sold before the end of the year. Investment firm Morgan Stanley and consulting firm Bain & Company are reportedly managing the transaction, though the details of the potential sale have yet to be disclosed publicly.

If the sale goes through, it would mark a major shift in the global aerospace industry, as ULA is one of the world's most important rocket companies. It remains to be seen what the future holds for ULA, but Elon Musk's prediction may soon become a reality.

This is the end of an era for the global rocket industry! So, what does the future hold for ULA? How did CEO Tory Bruno respond to this news? And who can step in to save the company? 

All these questions and more are answered in this episode of Great SpaceX!

James Webb Telescope just thrilled Scientists' minds - "Big Bang Theory is Wrong"

James Webb Telescope just thrilled Scientists mind "The Big Bang theory is WRONG"

The field of astronomy is buzzing with excitement due to new images captured by the Webb Telescope.

Yeah, after several delays, the James Webb Space Telescope is an outstanding scientific tool that is helping scientists understand more about the universe than was ever possible before with other observatories. But now, it seems like it is also putting astronomers in an unsettling predicament - they will have to question the very fundamentals of what they know about cosmology.

Indeed, astronomers were left reeling after recent images revealed a mind-boggling discovery:

A colossal galaxy, dwarfing even our Milky Way, and a pint-sized galaxy, deemed too tiny to exist, were found to coexist in the early universe!

This is how James Webb Telescope just proved that "The Big Bang theory is WRONG".

Elon Musk's mastermind in developing SpaceX's Monster rocket "Falcon Heavy"


GREAT SPACEX on YouTube has the story.

The Real Reason SpaceX Developed The Falcon Heavy Rocket!

SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket, while not necessarily the most historically significant, largest, or most powerful rocket ever made, is undeniably still the epitome of cool.

From launch to landing, the Falcon Heavy is a sight to behold and a true spectacle of science and engineering in action.

However, in recent years, Musk's vision focused more on Starship, the rocket SpaceX plans to use to transport up to 100 people or deliver 100 tons of cargo to Mars.

Starship's development is part of the reason why SpaceX decided not to pursue a "human rating" for Falcon Heavy.

Eventually, SpaceX's  fully-reusable next-gen heavy lift vehicle is going to replace both the Falcon Heavy and Falcon 9. But even as SpaceX's development accelerates on the Starship project, there are multiple applications for Falcon Heavy in the years ahead.

If you've already had a vehicle developed, the question is how many additional features would it take to keep that as a part of their product offering, if you will. That could contribute to their bottom line, even if it's not a part of their long-term strategy.

So, this is everything you need to know about this particular monster. More importantly, the real reason behind its development will definitely astonish you.

So see the great episode of Great SpaceX:

Former Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin thinks NASA did not land on the Moon


GREAT SPACEX on YouTube has the story.

Russian space agency boss says that there is 'no proof' USA ever landed on the Moon.

On July 20, 1969, millions of people gathered around their televisions to watch two USA astronauts do something no one had ever done before. Wearing bulky space suits and backpacks of oxygen to breathe, Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin became the first human beings to walk on the moon.

After the two stepped onto the lunar surface, Armstrong proclaimed these famous words: "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind."

Yeah, the first crewed lunar landing in 1969 was a historic triumph for the USA and humankind.

Ironically, Russia's Roscosmos space agency's former boss Dmitry Rogozin, recently revealed that he believes the US Apollo 11 mission was faked and American astronauts never landed on the Moon. He further questions why, all of a sudden, did the USA stop sending manned missions to the Moon.

Is this a new Rogozin joke?
And why hasn't NASA sent humans back to the moon yet?

Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla crowned in lavish ceremony


DW News on YouTube has the story.

King Charles III and his wife, Queen Camilla, have been crowned at Westminster Abbey in London.

In a ceremony packed full of music and symbolism, Charles was crowned in front more than two thousand national and international guests. Westminster Abbey has staged coronations for more than nine centuries. Charles's religious ceremony followed a pattern unchanged for hundreds of years. After the coronation, the King and Queen couple were driven to Buckingham Palace in a golden carriage. And then the royal family appeared on the balcony to the delight of the assembed crowds.

Earlier the Archbishop of Canterbury and the congregation pledged allegiance to the King.

Police arrested a number of people protesting against the monarchy as King Charles was crowned.

Several members of the anti-royal group Republic were detained. The demonstrators were demanding an end to the monarchy. Although most Britons are in favour of the institution, polls suggest support is declining among young people.
