    Marshmallow roast completed.
    Spam is as good as back out of the can again.

    Another lost opportunity for SpaceX haters....but fear NOT!
    Another launch is scheduled for 18 March in the afternoon.
    Much better Karma to hope for the failure of an non-crewed launch!!

    More bad news for the haters!
    Falcon 9 launch to low-Earth orbit from Florida.
    This was the 19th flight for the first stage booster which, unfortunately for the Muskrats out there.......landed successfully.

    I was reading about the physical effects space has on the body.
    Can’t wait for Leon to blast off to mars

    ISS orbit is not high enough to get much of ionizing radiation, so those effects on complex organisms are poorly understood. Loss of bone and muscle from zero G are much better understood by comparison.

    A very important muscle and unique in its autonomous nerve-control system. Self driving at its best!

    Well......
    <*sigh!*>
    Another failed Musk-hate opportunity!
    The NROL-57 mission out of Vandy was a success....MAYBE....but the first stage 'did' make it back to a pad on the base....unless it was......um.....'staged.'
    I mean, Musk IS working for the Trump administration, am I right???
    What happened to stage 2 is debatable of course because 'the customer' (which is supposed to be US!!!!) asked that they "not provide" actual confirmation that there really was a payload or even an active second stage on the F9.

    They were clever enough to make it LOOK like another rocket lit off after stage sep but I personally think that this is a ploy to funnel millions of bucks to Musk for his support.......
    CLASSIFIED satellite.....
    riiiiiight..... :unsure:


    - SpaceX - Launches
