[Return of the Freaker]

The amount of reddit trannies who probably loved space travel until musk got involved but still watch it now while seething and posting retarded shit is at the very least >0

Is Thunderfoot still hate watching SpaceX launches and seething that the rocket didn't blow up and kill six gorillion chuds?

The first point, clarity please. Second, yes I have a diagnosis for the tism. How did you know?

merely intuition I'm sure.

It's called a rhetorical question. I know it's clear

After seeing the launch, I can understand why the previous launchpad was ablated away. 33 booster engines roaring with incredible visible sonic booms (more of them and stronger than the Artemis 2 launch but that could just be better cameras at SpaceX), I wonder how this pad did lol

Landing vid

That's wild how it whips around like that a few seconds before landing and doesn't break apart (until it falls over and explodes).

Missed watching it live, thanks for the upload.

It really is an impressive machine. As much as I like SLS and New Glenn, this certainly has the potential to be the most impressive engineering vehicle ever built. Already is in many ways. Get the bugs out and this really should be a game changer.

First attempt of the Version 3 Starship with super heavy booster. 12th flight of the Super Heavy.

Fucking beautiful. And the day will come soon when it's caught instead of exploding in the water. And then the day will come when it's full of astronauts and supplies for the lunar base to be built. And then....

someone should tell them if you mash the RECOVER VEHICLE button and hit confirm quickly enough before it completely falls over you get full credit
