I think the Elon Boring Company and Envisioning Amazing Habitats threads deserve a place in the Miscellaneous Threads section. They are both quite iconic in this forum and even though some argue that they are somewhat out-of-place in here (they would be in other subforums as well) this is where they found a home.

I would like to cross-post to the Section Realignment sticky in SpaceX General. The Starship section is getting quite crowded and frustration mounting.

With the SpaceX missions section now clarified as for Falcon family only (and Starship missions threads now in Starship section) it’s important to note that there is a single combined SpaceX manifests thread:
