    1. Great stuff

      The future is now

      So glad someone like Elon exists in the world to push ahead with a vision despite all the forces against him

    2. SuspiciousPatate on

      Can we agree that it’s possible to love space and be excited about the advancement in tech being carried out by SpaceX while also generally disliking Elon Musk and the cult of personality that surrounds him?

    3. This launch really snuck up, I honestly thought August was more likely, but they’ve moved lightning fast these past 2 weeks. Only 55 days since last launch.

      Overall a fairly boring flight profile, pretty much the same suborbital as the previous ones. Only sorta exciting thing is they’re sending up real Starlinks and not just mass simulators (they’ll still burn up suborbital as usual, but it’ll be a test for the hardware). Might get some cool footage from them. At least the fixes from Flight 12 sound to have been relatively simple, so hopefully we get a full success with the Booster and in-space relight.

      Chances are this might finally be the final suborbital test flight. We’ll see soon.

    4. Definitely wont be coming to this sub in hopes of insightful and thoughtful discourse on the subject, come launch time.

      Basically r/im14andthisisspace

    5. ChapterThr33 on

      Love the technology, hate the guy whose pockets are being padded by it. Sucks but I think I’m good.

    7. Fingers crossed for a successful launch!! I wish SpaceX and Elon the best!
      Also the Nazis did horrible horrible things that rightly earned the wrath and hate
      of the world. Elon hasn’t done anything even remotely comparable and redditors calls him a Nazi as if he had. They should be ashamed of themselves, but I don’t think they are capable. /shrug

    8. ObiWanChronobi on

      That’s the difference: Werner Von Braun was working for the U.S., Elon is working for his own enrichment. And then using the money and power to push for fascism. One was a former Nazi who worked for our nation, and the other is an active Nazi working for his own self interest.

      Braun was a bureaucrat, Musk is an oligarch. I swear you stans get more weird every time with this tired analogy

    9. I am really starting to doubt that this thing will every be reliable enough to use as a practical launch vehicle.
