SpaceX first DOD flight underway
SpaceX's first DOD flight is underway. Since they weren't allowed to
cover the 2nd stage, the long range camera followed the first stage all the way from launch to a successful landing at their landing zone at Cape Canaveral. Those "ass-backwards" burns are quite impressive to see! If you didn't watch the thing live like I did, you really should watch the replay video.

see! Nasa couldn't do that thirty years ago when everyone knew that flyback boosters were the way for cheap access to space. they intstituted a flying bus that nobody could afford to use but the gov't. Thanks Nasa for keeping us out of space soooo long. You misanthropic bunch of eggheads. Now they're pretending to be working on a Mars mission. harrrdehar har. Another roadblock, or spaceblock, slides into place. Musk could get us to mars within a decade but nasa steps up to the plate with its rubber bat again. phoooey, no more nasa PR please. |
