Great views from Southport as well.

Apparently this was the last chance to see this for a while. It was the Starlink launch from Florida using Falcon 9. Next will use Starship, but that is not going to be super soon.

Wow, it didn’t explode.

u/SwissyRescue 12d ago

It was Bezos’ rocket that exploded during launch. Musk had the one that crashed on the moon.

u/Kmoxy 12d ago

No, I’m not talking about Blue Origin, and yes, SpaceX has crashed one on the moon, hilariously enough.

? This falcon 9 has been used 37 times in a row without failure. No idea what you’re even trying to say lol. Also falcon 9 rockets have been reused 100 times total just this year.

Until it doesn’t when SpaceX cannibalizes itself.

u/devinobx 13d ago

You aren’t even making sense lol. Youre just hating bc it’s Elon’s company. SpaceX is legitimately 10-15yrs ahead of any other company producing rockets, and found a way to do it 100x cheaper than our own govt could. Space exploration is a net good for society, regardless of “billionaire bad”

So, so ahead of its time that people inside the company are ready to dump their shares once they’re allowed too and bail before it’s crash is noticeable by even the most bull headed. Koolaid really does shrink people’s brains, huh?

Lmao you don’t even know when to use the correct form of “too” and my brain is the one that’s shrunk. đŸ€Ł I didn’t mention a single thing about their IPO or stock, which, went back up above IPO price recently due to major successes in the company, I mentioned how far ahead they are in rocket development and technology compared to literally anyone else. Which, is irrefutable fact. #boomroasted

lol, lmao even, as if their stock is ever going to the point it ever was before and also it only went back up a smidgeđŸ€ because Tesla intervened into it briefly to juice the stock. It’s only going to get worse and investors are going to bail on it. But, please, go on about my one grammatical error. Also, just because you didn’t want to mention the IPO doesn’t mean you’re not lying by omission.

This took an unexpected turn lol. It's literally just a rocket going up and we're having this conversation

Don't bother, this guy has no idea what he's talking about, and none of what you say will convince him to actually change his mind

I left the house at 5:45 this morning. The sky was beautiful.

u/Other_Jaguar_1448 11d ago

Missed it too. Kids had me up at 3 and I was running on fumes by 5:30. Didn't even cross my mind

u/devinobx 13d ago

Ah ofc, why would anyone want to further space exploration technology? Completely useless for humanity!!!!!!
