Rounding up the stories from the last couple of weeks, among many rocket launches we have the arrival of Koreaโs Danuri spacecraft into lunar orbit. There were 3 SpaceX launches within 36 hours, multiple launches by China and a couple of european launches.
There were also some big financial stories about acquisitions and the US funding for NASA and Space Force.

03:05 unactivated windows, absolute gigachads.
Long March 11, your friendly neighbourhood rocket! Did the launch this in the middle of a Christmas market? ๐ฎ
Leaving samples to be picked-up at a later date is silly, any mission that is going to pick-up these samples and return to Earth will have much better tech to gather samples than what is left there today.
Why have you got a clothes peg on your desk?
5:30 minecraft?(no, absolutely not
Thinking of you and your family at this time,
Hope this extreme weather does not effect you much.
Merry Christmas
The question is, if you release mega air into space, how much hotter can metal get?
Then again, oxygen and ozone blankets around all our satellites would help the ozone layerโฆ and thatโs good for protection from dangerous solar and internetgelactic tether rays. ๐๐๐ ๐ป๐
As if thereโs no dust work arounds!!!
loving the activate windows message on a Chinese space programs computer at 3:00
Good, screw the government. If they can't steal less from the American people and stop printing and borrowing, they shouldn't be able to fund their pet projects.
I don't understand why they are dropping these martian soil sample tubes all over the desert. it would be much easier to put them on in open box on the back of the rover and then to go get them, if the sample return mission is ever done. Much easier to locate the old rover than some small tubes all over the palace in the middle of nowhere.
Spacex versus reality ouch

Scott, please tell the marvellous story about Dmitri Rogozin, who went to Donetsk for his birthday and got there vodka and a steel ass. Or steel in the ass?))
The US spending bill is a big JOKE. While NASA gets less cash, foreign aid is sky rocketing – literally.
I'm sure this has been asked but could they not use Ingenuity to try to blow off dust on Insight and get more life out of it?
Scott , Politics over science, Manley
Long live Ingenuity !
Amazing.
Scott Manley eats blue diamond smokehouse almonds too? Hullo and thanks for another Scott Manley!
In regards to that coolant leak, that occurred during the Geminid Meteor shower that peaked on Dec 14. The same day that the Soyuze started to show the leak.
Thank you Scott for all of the space news you provided this year! I love it when you get so excited about the events that you can barely talk. It reminds me of a sports announcer, except for the fact that I'm not as interested in watching sports. Perhaps you'll get your chance at human spaceflight after they have worked out the preliminary rough edges. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Best wishes for 2023!
What is with the Rainbow being the de facto trademark of the gay movement? Even google enforces it's shadow empire using tbese colors as a subliminal enforcement tactic.
I always thot the Rainbow was an Alternative, not the Only Game in Town… goodbye "Don't Be Evil"
As far as the Insight Lander goes, a feather duster on a windshield wiper motor to clean the solar array, seems pretty simple to me.
@16 thats not a lightsaber thats rover poop
This is totally stupid ๐
Leaving samples on Mars surface until they got burred under tons of sands!!!!!!!!!!!
14 minutes until the main subject of the video's title. That's not how you're getting me to subscribe or come back.
"heres all the newsletters I got in my email, pay me ad revenue now, buy my merch"
"Holiday season shutdown" Is this to keep rockets from hitting Santa's sleigh?
Mars: where robots go to die.
For some reason I have a sudden urge to eat "Blue Diamond" brand peanuts…
