Old Musky could have stopped all wars on this planet, but INSTEAD he did something that may prove to be useful in a hundred years. Very troubling. And this, while all other billionaires spend all their money to help humanity.

wid posted:For a test? Like what? A very expensive sattelite that costs a hundred times more than a stupid car? How about any of the dozens of student-built or cash-strapped startup-built cubesats that are waiting in the wings to catch a free ride on literally any rocket? Maybe those teams should have been asked to see if any of them wanted a ride on this test rocket. Nah let's just launch a car-shaped piece of space trash instead, that'll make the stock price go up

Mumpy Puffinz posted:how does an electronic car in space do any of that? When a new rocket is untested it's common to try it out by launching dummy load, much as your father should have done. Like your father, he instead launched some old garbage that was going to get disposed of anyway. Unlike your father, his useless load proved entertaining and inspiring to millions of people. Clear?
