Space X-Launches Astronauts into Space

[petros]

Yup, no contractor has ever ripped off the government. Those $500 screw drivers are worth every penny.
Shit.....go ahead, I deserve it.

$500 screwdrivers and $1500 toilet seats came in handy for bombing Baghdad without being seen on radar.

I'm sure theyll be handy again.

 

[Hoid]

Nobody is laughing at Musk now.

He crushed the auto industry and he crushed Boeing.

 

[petros]

You're hilarious. You should head to the big city (Nanaimo) and do open mic night at the Cambie.

 

[Serryah]

Saw it after the fact but it really was awesome to see.

Bob and Doug in space, eh?

 

[Twin_Moose]

He crushed the auto industry and he crushed Boeing.

I didn't know the Boeing project is scrapped now?

 

[Avro52]

Nope, turns out that you recognized your peril at the last moment, and in a phenomenally athletic move, rescued yourself!
Well done!

I gave you the best opening too.

 

[Avro52]

Take your pills.

Only noobs take the easy ones.

Invisible planes bombing invisible WMD’s.

Ironic.

$400 0f that is kickbacks to get the contract. The rest just barely covers the cost of making the product and dealing with the paperwork.

I was joking around.

The $500 screwdriver is a myth.

It is certainly time that space travel expands beyond the realm of government owned ships.

That's what SpaceX and others are aiming to do.

 

[Gilgamesh]

Wow, what a huge leap forward into 1965!

Wow! What a stupid post. Using your 'logic' the next 747 taking off from Pearson is a great leap back to Orville & Wilbur in 1905.

The Brit Percy Pilcher invented the aeroplane.

 

[DaSleeper]

Naaah! he died trying!

 

[Blackleaf]

Naaah! he died trying!

Percy achieved powered flight in 1897, 6 years before the Wright Brothers.

Here's a video of it:

 

[Blackleaf]

No. I'm making an edit.

That video was of him flying the Hawk glider in 1897.

In 1899 he was planning a flight with a motor-driven hang glider, but died in the crash of another glider before he could make the attempt.

Had he not died in that accident, the chances are he would have beaten the Wright Brothers to it.

Didn’t.

How is the UK space program going?

Lol!

Lol!

It's going quite well.

About the same as ours.
