Pretty cool...
Starship completes third flight test. SpaceX's new-generation Starship rocket, the most powerful and largest launcher ever built, flew halfway around the world following liftoff from South Texas Thursday, accomplishing a key demonstration of its ability to carry heavyweight payloads into low-Earth orbit. The successful launch builds on two Starship test flights last year that achieved some, but not all, of their objectives and appears to put the privately funded rocket program on course to begin launching satellites, Ars reports.Thursday 3/14 @ 7am CST they are going to attempt to launch the SpaceX StarShip/Super Heavy for the third time

Its possible to do both. Some companies try and recover them, most don't.So when a rocket like that drops into the gulf, is it retrievable? Or does it just sink to the bottom of the ocean?
Tell them to move it to sometime mid-afternoon EST. That works best for me.They are talking Friday 4/10 at 745pm CST to try again. I'll update as I see things change.
I suppose they are already this late, why not delay it a few more hoursTell them to move it to sometime mid-afternoon EST. That works best for me.
Maybe that's why they are only sending 2 people. As opposed to the 4 people SpaceX sent. Even the monkey told them to pound sand.You've got to be a special kind of crazy to go up in a boeing space ship.
They are using a time machine I see. Or are they waiting until 2025?They are talking Friday 4/10 at 745pm CST to try again. I'll update as I see things change.
Blah!They are using a time machine I see. Or are they waiting until 2025?
