Another rocket explodes after takeoff…considered a success
Yes I get the spin of success and I get that it is rocket science, but I can’t help wonder how much crap was thrown into the atmosphere from yesterday’s Space-X launch and explosion and how much more crap is thrown out there during every launch. Never mind the processing of nasty stuff when the fuel is manufactured.

Seems like someone back in the 1960's and 70's was doing this. With people in them even. Maybe Elton Rust should hire whoever did those so he wouldn't have to waste any.

I'm amused that Musk's group calls it a success complicated by a "rapid unscheduled disassembly".

If you think that was successful we have an empty seat at Twitter waiting for YOU.

I loved all the forced clapping like it was something out of a DPRK propaganda film.

I understand that the vessel was named Twitter.

All of the ex Nazis would be dead now.
FWIW I heard EM called "Elmo" the other day which seems appropriate: Elmo has been three and a half for decades now.

No the other "N" word - NASA. Surely some of them are still around.
Or get a bigger rubber band.

When asked for comments, Space X spokeperson answered by a "pile of poo" emoji.
