watching now, my kid's so interested in space and space flight but i can't bear to have him watch this with me in case something happens :(
probably why there is such a disinterest in such a momentous event, parents trying to protect their kids.
I'll never forget how i felt during challenger and I didn't even see it live.
Godspeed brave voyagers to the cosmos!
- I'm conflicted in watching it live with my 2 young boys for the same reason.
I remember watching the challenger explode live at school. It was pretty heavy...fooler - because one of our teachers was in the Teacher in Space project.fooler
- just rewind the feed a few minutes and monitor on the phone.uan
- ended up watchig it with him, glad i did, I explained to him that things could go wrong and we lost astronauts in the past so to be prepared. he loved it_niko
- ^ Good you shared it with him. I remember watching the shuttle take-offs at school for years. Even with the tragedy, it was inspiring.formed
- It's something you can share with him forever and could be the first in an impressive move to space.formed

- Tweeting when high is dumb afchukkaphob
- why post in the SpaceX thread?monospaced
- Elon Musk = Tesla = SpaceX = Boring Co = CLINT
it's all one and the samechukkaphob - not really, nomonospaced
- This is about Tesla, which has its own thread. This thread is about SpaceX. Totally separate company.monospaced
- nah, that's how he makes it all looks. All the same BSchukkaphob
- what are you talking about? they have completely different staff, investors, board, etcmonospaced
- nah, it's all his ego, dude. Don't fall for it. LOLchukkaphob
- Huh?monospaced
- you just don't know/understand. Don't worry about it.chukkaphob
- Oh no! he tweeted something bad, why don't they just go after real criminals ffs. What a waste of resources.zarkonite
- If it smells like Musk...utopian
- you sure it's me who doesn't understand? really? ;)monospaced

A British Cave Rescuer Is Officially Suing Elon Musk For Calling Him A Pedophile
- diver must really need it on the record that he's not a paedo?imbecile
- no, he wans Elon Musk punished for defamation and for being an arrogant prick.chukkaphob
- good luck with those feelings of entitlementimbecile
- chukka, you're a pedo. have fun suing me.imbecile
- teacher, teacher! he called me a name! fucking lolimbecile
- @imbecile That's all you got? Jesus, this is dull AF.yawn.chukkaphob
- if you don't understand the point i've made, wasting more time explaining it you won't help.imbecile
- you've made no point at all imbecile. Nobody cares what you say. Plenty care what Musk says. That's the difference.BusterBoy
- the difference if the level of expectation each of you seem to have. that is it. he like me, has no obligation to either of you. which was my point.imbecile

Dude/Elon is totally having fun with all of this:
- One earthquake. Thats all it takes. Cool idea thosofakingback
- I feel like if cars were already self driving, this wouldn't be necessary.monospaced
- "one earthquake" could be said of anything. They have this thing called "engineering" that makes it work despite the dangers.cannonball1978
- One meteor. Thats all it takes. Cool idea thomoldero
- What's "engineering"? What does it do? Someone should give it those countries that get pummeled to ruble.sofakingback

The actual Space X video footage...keep your eyes on the upper right hand corner of the video. Space X conveniently cuts the live feed to show some alternative graphics.

Do you think making human kind multi-planetary is irrelevant?
Spacex is a private (none-public) company founded with the sole purpose of eventually achieving that goal. You should read up on Elon Musk. This guy is the real deal!
- Let's not create idols by saying things like "he's the real deal, the visionary, the invenTOR!" Silicon Valley loves to create super-heros like Jobs or him.Beeswax
- Not that he's not doing some amazing things but this exaltation culture, this "we need a hero" mentality breaks things in the name of science and fairness.Beeswax
- He's a business-man after all but carrying a great responsibilty. Do we really know that he's pushing things for the sake of science or billion dollar contractsBeeswax
- His responsibility begins with that decision and just like we have to remind our politicians their designated priority we have to remind these people certainBeeswax
- things too. That can start by not worshipping them.Beeswax
- Lol @ science and fairness. It's just not fair! Waaaaa, cry me a river.Hayoth
- What's wrong with heros, ppl love heros. He's as close as Tony Stark as you can get.Maaku
- Well Beeswax, so what if it's for billion dollar contracts? Government research is dead. NASA is a shell of it's former glory. It has to get done.ETM
- And if you followed Musk's history, you'd obviously see he cares more for the idea than cash flow or he would have folded Tesla long ago...ETM
- ... and not given away the hyper loop, or thrown so much money at Solar City.ETM

Starship high altitude flight test tomorrow!
- 400 metric tons of kerosene and emitted more carbon dioxide in a few minutes than an average car would in more than two centuries per launch.utopian
- source?pockets
- AP, nevermind. didnt realize how much each launch fucks up the earthpockets
- It is peanuts compared to other sourcesinv
