M-flare launches fast CME toward Earth
On 07 June, EarthSky reported the Sun released a moderateM1.9 solar flare from sunspot region AR4461 on June 6. The eruption launched a massive coronal mass ejection (CME) travelling toward Earth at an impressive 1,400 kilometres per second. The initial blast caused a minor radio blackout over the Atlantic Ocean. It is expected that on 08 June, the main CME body will strike Earth's magnetic field. Resulting in moderate to severe geomagnetic storms. While this might affect communication systems, it will likely generate spectacular aurora displays in both hemispheres. Another highly complex sunspot region, AR4456, also remains volatile.

SpaceX is set to launch a Falcon 9 rocket booster on a record-breaking 35th flight
On 07 June, as reported by Spaceflight, the launch of the 35th Falcon 9 rocket mission is set to occur. The Falcon 9’s Starlink 10-35 mission will occur on Monday with the aim of launching 29 satellites to enable the provision of broadband internet services from an orbit of more than 10,500 satellites. The achievement constitutes an important part of SpaceX’s engineering objective to ensure that Falcon 9 boosters can make up to 40 launches. However, strong contracts within the government mean that there will only be up to five launches when it comes to booster reuse; however, the financial constraints on SpaceX could see that they do up to 25 launches..

NASA’s X-59 finally achieves its first supersonic flight
On 05 June, NASA’s X -59 achieved its first supersonic flight, at Edwards Air Force Base in California. It was the first time, after getting off the ground for more than six months. Test pilot Jim "Clue" Less flew the aircraft during an 81-minute flight to a maximum altitude of 43,400 feet at a top speed of  713 mph which is approximately Mach 1.1, or 1.1 times faster than the speed of sound, according to NASA. The X-59 is specifically designed to address the primary barrier to commercial supersonic travel which is the loud sonic boom produced when an aircraft breaks the sound barrier.

Rwanda Space Agency formally joins the ANGA programme
On 06 June, Space in Africa reported the formal joining of The Rwanda Space Agency with the Augmented Navigation for Africa (ANGA) programme. The MoU was signed in Kigali by RSA Chief Executive Officer Gaspard Twagirayezu and Prosper Zo’o Minto’o, Director General of the Agency for Air Navigation Safety in Africa and Madagascar (ASECNA). Rwanda is set to host an ANGA Mission Control Centre and support the adoption and use of ANGA services within its territory, under the agreement. The MoU positions Rwanda as part of ANGA’s operational infrastructure, and its membership introduces a Mission Control Centre function, in ANGA’s ground segment architecture and the agreement also reflects a broader pattern in Rwanda’s space sector development.
