ka-bloom! Look at that fireball. Obviously Trump sabotaged this rocket to shut Musk up about the Epstein stuff.
Someone’s gotta do something about these dangerous terrorists operating near the US-Mexico border
I’ve been assured that they learn more from each explosion than they do from each successful launch
To increase efficiency we will simply blow up the rockets on the ground, this way we can avoid the chance of a successful launchDepartment Of Ground Explosions
Musk must be extremely well read at this point.
Skip woke, ship broke
Imagine being even worse at this shit than NASA
Worse than the soviets for whom calculator was a job tite.
Hey! NASA also had calculators!
Space X-plosion
They need to consult the experts in rocketry: the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
GOOD.
some folks at work were talking about all these rocket explosions and whatnot are actually causing another hole in the o-zone layer again… not sure if true
Don’t know about the rocket but there are possible effects from the alluminum that gets released when they burn up satellites in the atmosphere.

It’s not true. Steel is a non-combustible metal and these rockets are fueled with Methalox. Methane is not an ozone depleting chemical and neither are its combustion products. Physical effects and chemical by-products from satellite re-entry are linked to ozone depletion, so Starlink is the actual thing that SpaceX is doing to fuck it up, as /u/boiledfrog mentioned.
The water vapor added to the air from methane combustion can impact polar cloud formation that might have some impact on ozone layer replenishment, but there’s a lot of complexity there and seemingly even things like groundwater well usage may have impacts on this.
Did they also say that each launch tilts the earth a little more on its axis?
lol
That’s outside my scope of understanding so idk
The poor fucks down around Boca Chica Village are the only ones who lose here.
Did yall know there is a street called ‘memes street’ in Boca Chica Village? (I fucking refuse to call it St*rbase). What a fucking loser.
MEMES!
[rocket explodes killing 200 people]
Starship V2 is turning out to be a real lemon of a design. V1 was too heavy for production but at least they were reliable prototypes.
Seems like the high mass of the rocket’s structure made it explode mostly downward, and these new models with thin walls are no good, just explode outwards everywhere instead.
Light of consciousness torch bearers in shambles rn
