Falcon Heavy Launch

It's Space 1999, so probably not

 

 

 

I'm hoping he's referencing this

which itself was referenced in the NASA game

 

EDIT: ninja'd

 

Haha, darn. Either way still good. All I remember of the Moonbase Alpha game was the Text To Speech being used for comedic effect.

[Chilledheat]

It is indeed, and not just on that one; that's on all Teslas.

 

Almost as if he knew he'd be shooting them into space..

Watched it with my kids last night, they were amazed especially with the synchronised landing of the 2 rocket boosters.

We now have a new wallpaper on the home computer

References to Tony Stark always just remind me of Stark by Ben Elton, which gives things an altogether different twist (the world's mega-rich abandon Earth in big rockets, leaving behind the environmental mess that they created).

 

I can't help but feel that the Ben Elton novel might turn out to be prophetic...

just think if musk really was a super villain id wonder who that is in the car its a great way of getting rid of a body lol

 

watched it live was great to see it go so well the 2 boosters landing side by side just a shame the core module apparently hit the see at something like 500kph

Hopefully Donald Trump:D

There's too much space junk, to be adding DT is just too much!

[RusselHairy]

By the way, does anyone have a link to the footage of a failed middle booster? All I could find was a frame-by-frame 3 sec video which shows almost nothing.

[synaesthesia]

There's no footage (yet) other than what was behind the presenters when it was live

 

No doubt SpaceX themselves will release footage probably cracking a few jokes about it - usually they have to wait until the drone ship returns so they can manually get the footage from the cameras.

Anyone seen Branson recently? One way to get rid of the competition.

"See to it that Mr Bond gets... fired."

 

(I'm almost certain there are some better ones).

Thanks. I think this part of footage will be the one most spectacular throughout the whole translation

First person into space gets a free Tesla!

You just have to bring it back yourself

Quite high mileage, though.

[JATSO]

Quite high mileage, though.

 

and the batteries will be probably flat because someone left the CD/Radio on, so you'll need a big charger.

[hardtailstar]

Yeah that will be fine

meh its a free car! haha

Im sure I could find one!

11km/s with the top down and not even a light breeze. The sunburn is a killer though.

[jthompson]

Presumably Jeff Bezos is sitting wondering whether he's got any cool stuff that he can fire into space. Hard to beat a sportscar, tbh.

...The sunburn is a killer though.

Oh, has Trump been sent up already but come back, somehow?

Now announcing the new AWS region 'Low Earth Orbit' housed aboard the space station Bezos-1.
