Elon Musk to give first Mars rocket update in two years
CNN
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is expected on Thursday to give the most thorough update in two years about SpaceX's plans for Starship, the gargantuan rocket at the heart of Musk's interplanetary travel ambitions.
Starship is a 400-foot tall, steel rocket and spacecraft combo that looks like a massive, elongated silver bullet. So far, the public has seen quite a bit of the upper portion of the vehicle as early prototypes have conducted a few so-called "hop tests," and SpaceX now appears ready to test the whole thing. It's all part of the early steps the company is taking to develop a spacecraft capable of taking humans to the Moon and — eventually — Mars.
SpaceX has achieved regular crewed flights to the ISS, sent the first all-tourist crew to orbit, and made its mark as the exciting-newcomer-turned-reliable-mainstay of the US aerospace industry.

Attorneys for Kilmar Abrego Garcia have asked a judge to put severe sanctions on the Trump administration, saying federal officials violated court orders to prove the steps they were taking to attempt to get the wrongfully deported man out of El Salvador for weeks, before he was returned to face criminal charges.
