The proposed launch of Starship has been delayed due to a frozen valve. We'll see how long it takes for them to try again.
What did launch yesterday was the JUICE spacecraft. This is an ESA mission that is particularly focused on Ganymede, but will also do flybys of Europa and Callisto. It will spend a year orbiting Ganymede and studying its magnetic field.
I am disappointed that I missed the livestream, though, which was apparently photobombed by a sloth.
A sloth.
He, of course, did not care about the rocket launch, and probably wasn't aware of how cute he is.
