Our weekly space industry newsletter is out of beta
Hello HN! My partner and I just published issue #5 of The Orbital Index, our brief & technical weekly newsletter about space science and the space industry, and so we've taken the project out of beta. The process of finding a voice and fine tuning the level of technical detail is ongoing, but we feel like we've arrived at something succinct, interesting, and technical, in a large part because of the great feedback that we have received from HN subscribers from our last Show HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19227434) a month ago. Here's our website, where you can signup…
Our weekly space industry newsletter is out of beta launched on March 26, 2019 with 6 votes and more than 50% of that year's launches.

I measured the half-life of 41,301 Show HN launches. It's 7 hoursJul 2026 · jonno.nz · ▲37I scraped every Show HN from the last 12 months (41,301 posts) plus the full comment tree of every launch with 10+ comments, ~100k comment timestamps, all from the Algolia HN API. The median launch gets 2 points and 0 comments. For launches that do get traction, half the comments they'll ever get arrive within 7.2 hours and 90% within 26, and the top decile decays on the same clock as everyone else.
