HISTORY HAS BEEN MADE

 

SpaceX has successfully launched a Falcon 9 rocket and returned the stage one rocket to the landing site...

It actually landed on a pad at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station....

 

A move that was called impossible and a promise from SpaceX to be capable of not only returning there 1st stage

rockets but reuse them  there by reducing cost on ALL future launches

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love this shit

Fuck NASA?  :huh:

 

Half of your fucking life has been enhanced through NASA innovations.  Hell, the dinner plates I eat off are strong and can be used directly in the oven.  They are material that was tested and failed for use as heat-shielding for Apollo spacecraft Command Modules.  Even their failures enhance our lives. 

 

So anyway, yeah NASA, hxtr sends a big 'ol FU!  :rolleyes:

I did see that buddy. I think it's pretty exciting news and obviously a milestone in space exploration. We eventually will need and alternative place to live and procreate other than earth.  :yes

Um, no.  Take an economics course.  :P

 

Entire economies have emerged around the research and development funded by NASA.  This fuels the overall economy and generates tremendous economic growth.  Our investment in NASA has been returned an order of magnitude over.  If you want to complain about draining the American public, let's talk about all the dweebs in congress that got "bored" with manned spaceflight and killed Apollo, then let us flounder for a decade and never really funded NASA up properly again.  Talk about fucking over the American public.  It was that right there (among other things, of course.)

I'm not interested in the Brainwashing done by Colleges today my friend....

 

Oh and BTW I own a small business.

 

Uhm, it's you that needs to think about it....

The Trillions we spent to go to the moon (if you actually believe we did) would go along way to buying microwaves and other items...

And listen I'm a Science guy, but the space race was part of the Cold War.

It was a way to get the people to support better rockets used for ICBM's...

You will probably have a different outlook on this when the USA Finally Declares Bankruptcy...

 

It's Congress who fleeced us during the Cold War for Projects, Weapons and other lies to fill their pockets and the Pockets who pull their strings.

I personally know someone who owns a company that supplies the Air Force making Aviation parts and is a Multi Millionaire through over charging th American public through defense spending.

If NASA was able to do what they do and fund itself by being part of the "Open Market" then fine.

But as of now, The Politicians have made them a Muslim Outreach Branch of the Government (which now they deny)

 

Sorry to rain on your USA pride, but the truth is the truth

@@Spartacus while some of what you have said may be truthful

 

SpaceX is its own thing

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX

 

 

Oh don't get me wrong...

I'm all for the Private sector doing this.

At least the Government can't fleece us out of more $ through the Muslim Outreach Program called NASA.

At least there wont be any $500 hammers or $5000 toilet seats on this project Loader.

I love Science.
