    News Changes to the SpaceX BFR rocket.

    I wouldn't have expected it to fail so far into the flight. At that point , even cutting the engines would have yielded useful info. Perhaps fear that it would survive reentry and fall on land? Steeper descent than nominal would make that unlikely, I guess... That vent that was there even...

    How does what is basically a suborbital test flight have a launch window? They don't need to meet up with anything

    What music are you listening to?

    Swiftly added to the playlist used while going for a run, as well as 'bands to see live asap'. What's with Sweden being so good at music?

    I mean, this had more red flags than a small communist country. From the inability to open the hatch by themselves, to having been damaged and lost comms several times on previous dives, to using a gaming controller. I play almost daily on the Xbox, and I have 5 or 6 controllers laying about in...
