The owner may be a monster, but this is damn impressive!

I'd imagine Elon isn't there to shit on everything, considering how bad it turned out when he got involved with Twitters operations.

From what I've read, SpaceX has an entire team whose main job is to stop Musk from fucking shit up

Ok that’s rad.

Did they get him to change his mind on the starship having to look like a 1950’s sci-fi rocket ship? I read that it’s only pointy because he said to make it pointy but that’s not the most efficient design.

I supported him buying Twitter, as since he has been distracted, spaceX is doing a lot better again.

As a bonus he's totally destroying twitter too, win win.

Falcon is a different rocket. This is Starship.

The sonic shockwave moving through the clouds visible on some of the footage was amazing and then the shockwave bounced on the ground and back into the clouds a couple of seconds later, so amazing to see. I hate Elon Musk, but that they pulled this off is incredible.

Man this made me really miss watching shuttle launches as a kid in Florida. Now that I've got a son I'm gonna have to take him to a launch one day.
