SpaceX: Launch Falcon Heavy LIVE

[4ster]

I probably am over estimating the real impact of this event, but I think the accomplishment is tremendous. Watching this brought a similar excitement of the Mercury/Gemini/Apollo launches, with the added show of the synchronized landings of the SpaceX boosters. That was impressive!

Since NASA was a taxpayer funded enterprise they couldn't be too outrageous with the optics. Sending a Tesla Roadster up with a SpaceX suit behind the wheel and a copy of "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" in the glove box is inspired insanity.

Now, what about the center core?

Error correction edit: Clicking a few degrees from the link in my next post the book is Asimov's "Foundation" series, not "Hitchhiker's" as I had heard on a radio report earlier today. This disappoints me for some reason.
