Title: SpaceX Falcon Heavy
Post by: Gravoth_iii on February 05, 2018, 10:39:42 pm
Worlds most powerful rocket launches to mars tomorrow i believe. Not too read up on this stuff, but spacex seem to be doing gods work as far as reusable launches goes.

Cores lost signal because of the vibration when landing on a sea platform in previous launches too, didn't check the news yet but it most likely survived.

Core didn't survive

That core booster approached the platform as planned, but it unfortunately hit the water going 300 MPH and was lost, because some of its return engines failed to light.

98% win then, the thing cost a ton, and most of SpaceX innovation is cheaper space travel, so this is important. The ultimate goal being near total re-usability of modules.

yeah, Musk said Falcon Heavy cost 90mill which is 30mill more than Falcon 9, and can hold twice as much weight

Do you think that aliens passing by will find the car design and drivers suit to be distasteful or they'll dig it?

they'll probably find it distasteful, especially because he's driving through space with only 1 hand on the wheel.

Still waiting for that tunnel. While space travel is awesome, I can't afford it. Electric cars are also awesome but I'm public transport guy. Need that tunnel badly.

You know what? cRPG's Leshma is older than that meme. Old enough to be first to introduce that story to this very forum, even before that meme gained traction or even before meme culture became big online. One of the perks of visiting this place for more than seven years.
