Ok Fuzz, that's solidly better then my explanation.

Besides it probably wasn't the Zygotians who are actually herbivore space bearing cows from the Crab Nebula.

It was probably the rowdy spoiled teenage alien Mifastians from the dark nebula.

Bump...

A day late but this video of Falcon 9's flight to space & back was one of the coolest things I've seen in a while.

How are they going to fire 33 raptors and not have it destroy the pad underneath.. should be quite a spectacle.

#### Elon Musk entirely, but that thing is unbelievably cool. Can't wait to see the full stack launch. I will never forget watching the starship itself pivot and land on the ground.

Anyone else catch the Flacon Heavy launch the other day? The twin booster landing is oh so glorious. The 163rd and 164th landed first stage boosters. Insane. 27:14 of the link for the side booster landing.

They're supposed to be static firing all the engines on the booster today sometime.

I check the YouTube channel every so often expecting to find a giant smoking crater where the rockets dug a hole then fell into it launch platform and all.
