Off Topic - SpaceX

Evening all,

Did anyone watch the SpaceX launch? Just watched it with my son and found it utterly incredible. The calculations and science involved in getting the boosters back to ground and landing the way they did, it just makes my head hurt thinking about it.

Very few things that I would describe as awesome in the truest sense of the word, but this was one.

Link here if anyone is interested -

Did your plane have wheels on the top when you inevitably have to land upside down at Adelaide?

What musk is doing with renewable energy and battery storage in Australia in partnership with the South Australian govt is another game changer.

He's leading a revolution in energy production and usage. If he keeps on with this current trajectory (pun intended) then he'll be considered more than just a bright spark.

Agreed, he's far more than a bright spark.
How someone can continually burn through billions upon billions worth of other peoples money is indeed genius.........

Exactly.
Far more productive to sit on one’s aršę and slag off others’ achievements.
