MAYBE if we Cut the FAA and OTHER Regulatory agencies it'll not Explode next Time?

People really put the faith of the entire American space program on Elon. It would be funny if it wasn't so stupid.

My feed rn:

It's not perfect, but capitalism is the best system we've got. It is only through competition on the free market that we would arrive at a space program this efficient and innovative. Imagine if the government tried to do this! They would've blown up a 100 rockets by now with nothing to show for it, and it would've cost tax payers billions of dollars. The innovation of SpaceX is humanity at it's finest. For thousands of years we've looked up at the sky, and wondered what's there, and now, thanks to the engineering chops of Elon Musk, it is within our grasp. Imagine that, sending a person to space. Maybe someday we'll even be able to put someone on the moon!

I think Honda has begun building spaceships/rockets too. Think they chose to build the type that don't explode. link

It's getting more efficient by the day. They used to have to launch it into the air before it had blow up. This way it saves time

It’s not a big deal when you’re blowing up someone else’s money with no real accountability.

Was he on it? If he was this is a complete success.

If he wasn’t.

Better luck next time I guess?

It's not a starship, at best it's a low Earth orbit ship.

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.

good.

sad that he wasn't on it though.

How many times does this gotta happen before we start calling them missiles instead of rockets?

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.

“Look at what I can do” -Elon musk while throwing a Nazi salute

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.

that's how we know Musk isn't a Nazi, Nazis could make rockets.

/s

(he is a nazi, just an incompetent one)

Unplanned rapid disassembly?

The next explosion will occur on the assembly line. Now I call that progress!

Thoughts and prayers... lol

We can't even handle being a multi-country species, maybe Elon should dial back the sci-fi "multi-planet" miniseries playing in his head...

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.

oh no! anyway...

It’s certainly not Honda-level reliability.
