This week Starship launched and what a catch that was. We have several thoughts we didn't even have time for a cold open! Europa Clipper also launched this past week and Iain has some controversial thoughts on it. Then Ethan talks about all of the contracts that were singed this week (note from Iain: there were a stupid amount of contracts). then to top it all off we cover IAC as well as some other miscellaneous news.

Like the name suggests, we've got a double whammy in terms of anomalies this week -- one with a Falcon 9 (yes, again) and one with a Vulcan SRB... come give a listen to our analysis of what exactly happened and why only one of them is getting an FAA investigation.

What else do we have?

• Hurricane Helene & Starlink (which, cool note to add, since we've recorded, Starlink and T-Mobile have officially activated Satellite Texting Beta for the impacted areas!!!!)
• Voyager 2 shuts down another scientific instrument to save power
• Voting from the Space Station
• and one very, very noisy alarm that went off at 5 AM for the entire state of Texas. Oopsies.

All this, on this week's Max-Q: The Podcast!

This week Iain goes solo for a retro style show with futuristic topics. There were many new things happening this week such as Stoke doing suction testing, a New Glenn at Port Canaveral, and a new satellite bus. There were also a few old topics such as Viper coming back from the dead and some Starliner updates.
