If you told me that I’d be cheering for space rockets exploding 10 years ago I would have called you crazy. Incredible how much damage that fiend has done to our society.
How many times does this gotta happen before we start calling them missiles instead of rockets?
I’m all for mankind colonizing the stars, but I don’t want that A hole down a K hole Elmo involved in any way. I don’t trust the cunt not to have a back door into the colony, that he opens whenever his fee fee’s get hurt, or if his K hole runs dry.
Oh please. Elon will long be dead before we are ever seriously colonizing mars.
That’s his only redeeming feature…that he’ll be dead one day.
good.
sad that he wasn’t on it though.
I feel bad for all the engineers etc who are working really hard on these projects, only to see their efforts tarnished by the flyblown image of the wanker who owns the company.
I think Honda has begun building spaceships/rockets too. Think they chose to build the type that don’t explode. link
Japanese cars are superior to American cars, why wouldn’t their rockets be?
It’s not a starship, at best it’s a low Earth orbit ship.
People really put the faith of the entire American space program on Elon. It would be funny if it wasn’t so stupid.
Falcon 9 has launched over 500 mission with a very high success rate. Of course the bulk of advancement should be coming from NASA and we need to spend more there, but SpaceX is putting up big numbers in successful payload lifts.
It’s kinda fun to be living in a time where rockets regularly blow up again. Apart from, you know, everything else going on and not wanting astronauts to die.
Honestly, rocket development has always been filled with explosions - the Saturn V had like 6 engine-out events during Apollo and the early Falcon 9 tests were just as explosive. what’s different now is we get to see the failures in HD livestreams instead of classified footage that would’ve been buried in the 60s.
Waiting for the SpaceX bros to tell everyone how this was actually a good thing because it was supposed to happen and means everything is going well.
I now have the Street Fighter voice in my head going:
“Honda Wins!”
For the killjoy that will come pointing out that SpaceX is at another level of development etc., yes, I know that. Japan also has a constitution written by the US that doesn’t permit them to have long-range missiles.
Thoughts and prayers… lol
That’s better efficiency. It gets to the blowing up part faster than before
oh no! anyway…
Break out the marshmallows
