THIS is Why you Want a Rocket Scientist Who Knows What He's Doing

The first part was just a bit of humor, but Imagine if one of these took a wrong turn and headed for a densely populated city. Wonder what the insurance premium is on one of these things.

Hearing Elon say "i'm hoping to make space flight available to almost everyone." is quite amusing.
You know that the middle income population would have paid for it by the time its complete for people to use, and yet like his cars only the top few percent will have the type of income to buy a ticket.

Another case of where the middle class carry the burden, for companies and big income earners to reap the rewards.

I came across the name Elon in our BIBLE study in the book of Judges the other day. I looked it up & it means "the great oak" as in the largest most prominent oak tree in a forrest. I just thought that was interesting. Seeing Elon almost break into tears when asked about the push back from folks he considers heros was unexpected. I'll never understand how people like Elon feel entitled to our (the taxpayers) money. Illgotten gains at best.

I liked the vid man! Esp. the bit where Elon goes watery eyed when confronted with the flak from his heroes... Btw, the Falcon 9 explosion was weird, i have analyzed the images and there is something flying through the air. It comes from the right and seems to have variable speed and direction. It seems to fly around the rocket when it explodes. I still have the stills somewhere.
