TLDR

A post says NASA has selected SpaceX to launch StarBurst from Cape Canaveral’s SLC-40 on a Falcon 9 Bandwagon mission, no earlier than 2028. It describes StarBurst’s planned role: scanning nearly the entire unobscured sky for short gamma-ray bursts created by merging neutron stars, helping scientists catch some of those events’ earliest high-energy signals.
