Wow, the live reentry camera was stunning! Even if they lost the ship, it was brilliant.
Seems like they might’ve had some attitude control issues, maybe the RCS wasn’t performing perfectly?
Seems to be a stunning technical advance, bravo to all the engineers and scientists and everyone else who worked on it.
It’s tempting to dismiss or downplay because of the utter arseholishness of the company owner - but leaving him aside, what a fantastic achievement.
What a launch! Very exciting stuff; it’s amazing how quickly they iterate.
It’s Musk. Don’t care.
Always gotta have that one jackass that wants to bring up Musk when the rest of us just want to enjoy space progress. What a loser
I’m sure watching it explode will be an interesting spectacle.
Aww, show us on the doll where he supposedly touched you.
You care so little you had to announce it here.
He’s living rent-free in your head.
Still don’t care no matter how it hurts you that I don’t.
