TBH my favorite moment was Tim screaming, "Water towers CAN fly!"

Done with survey, black hole 'image' is dead last.
My personal favorite is the StarHopper flight. Stayed up till 3 AM to watch your livestream and it was so exciting. I know there must have been more important space achievements, but my personal favorite is StarHopper.
The progress of RocketLab towards reusability. This, by promising reduced prices to access space, together with SpaceX, opens a bright future for space science, technologies, exploration, etc.

Flying water tower, for sure. That was falcon awesome!!!
Where was Parker?
"Water tanks *can* fly" chicken skin-
The progress on crewed flight, including the failures. Each failure found so far could have endangered a crew, so hats off to SpaceX , Boeing and NASA. I think our crewed solutions will be the safest rockets yet. Thanks Tim for all youโre doing for space flight!
Definitely Starhopper - successful Full Flow Staged Combustion engine powered by fuel that can be easily manufactured off-world, and combined with proven engine clustering technology from Falcon - this is the project to get us to put boots on Mars. Elon is the Tucker of Rockets.

Tough one - this was a very good year, and the next might be even better!
I would put CRS-18 Space X Falcon-9 Cargo Dragon launch/booster recovery my number 1 since I was there to see it in person!!
