Space and stuff

SpaceX plan to launch their Falcon Heavy this evening, the largest rocket since the Saturn V went up in '73!

Following John Young's recent death, there's now only 5 people alive today that have ever walked on the moon (out of the 12 ever to do so). Hopefully a new generation will Ben inspired.

Is this another demo up and down as usual? Be arsed with this. Elon and his toys

No. It's going up with a payload, a Tesla Roadster to be precise...

It will be no worse than the ISS. We are a long way away from advertising.....the boards would have to be monumentally large to be recognisable from space.

This will just be a twinkle at dusk and dawn for a short period. You won’t be seeing it during the night.

Too bad we couldn't have attached a monumentally large "Board Out!" banner.

We've been in La Palma for a two week winter break. Unfortunately the weather has been too bad to see this awe-inspiring view of the Milky Way.

Elon Musk really should have forked out for the protective cover case for the GoPro that was stuck to the side of the drone ship!
