did you know that the earth is 70% water, yet china managed to land a rocket on a tiny village and/or covid-19 hospital? a great victory for chinese science, the unnamed country (who can only hit water lol) must salivate with jealousy

That shithole country now uses rockets that don't even hit anything, they just land intact like some pussy rear end weak bitch lolololol

man look at how cool the shuttle was. america used to kick rear end.



I highly recommend Apollo 11 (2019, IMAX) for an amazing and poignant look at just how much it kicked rear end.

What if, hear me out here, what if there were hidden RCS thrusters on that rocket that allowed China to give it a little nudge here and there, just to make sure it lands as intended on Mar-a-lago?

:thunk:

:china:

We can't even tell precisely how the rocket's trajectory is affected by re-entry, they could totally get away with it. I'm not seriously tinfoiling about this, I'm just saying they should do it.

Still hoping for them hidden RCS thrusters... just a lil' nudge!

This is getting progressively underwhelming.

Is Sealand somewhere close to that merger of the blue and yellow lines at all?

Statistically speaking what are the odds it's still got enough inertia to just keep bouncing on water until it hits Mar-a-lago?
