Remember when the FAA grounded him till he got this fix and then Musk told the FAA head to retire or be fired?

I think it's wild that "better times" is now when corruption wasn't so naked.

Ughhhh just get in the rocket, rocket boy!!!

It pisses me off that I'm rooting against Space X, a company with an unarguably cool mission and product. Fuck Musk.

The FAA was investigating SpaceX from the last explosion and grounded all spacex flight until after an investigation. Then, the nazi-in-chief fired the FAA leader to get his way.

Maybe the internal GPS was looking for the Gulf of Mexico and just gave up?

Right, they've perfected the rocket, now we just need to load Elon onto the next flight.

Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth.

How many american tax dollars were wasted on this DOGE???

Remember that Elon said we would land on Mars by 2024?

We haven't even started thinking about a Mars misson lmao

Hey guys, can we hear again how low Earth orbit is dumb and we should just go to Mars? Asking for a friend.

/s

I say this as someone who loathes Musk, its not a big deal that this exploded.

But the success or failures of the program should also not be meaningfully attributed to Musk anyway. He owns the company but hes not an engineer.

Hope he's on the next flight

I wonder if the reason for it failing this time was sabotage by SpaceX engineers.

Hmm maybe the FAA should not have cleared the flight since the rocket in January wasn't fully investigated to completion. You rush complex engineering and science and things go wrong.

America is footing this bill. This is no more musk's "Mars program" than it is MY mars program. Matter of fact, seeing as I pay taxes and he doesn't, it's more mine that his.

It's time to remove musk's U.S. subsidies for cars, rockets, and whatever else he's fucking up.

Sorry Elon, you're just going to have to live in the hell you're creating.

Looking forward to SpaceX fans continuing to talk about how much SpaceX is insulated from musk's stupidity thanks to Shotwell.

SpaceX can still pivot to a fireworks company and let decades old soviet rockets take people to the ISS. I'm sure that DOGE will cut the wasteful government grants this company gets.

And we need at least like 7 consecutive launches like this to fuel a moon mission. No wonder he's talking about Mars again, more time to grift off taxpayer money and not be on the hook to actually deliver any time soon.

Worst fucking timeline.

Musk "speeding up" the program. Lol.
