Unmasking Elon Musk

[sugilite:Me]

The Voice of America are frantically trying to rehire the staff illegally fired when Musks's team of geniuses disestablished the Farsi language department. It has suddenly occurred to TPTB that it might be beneficial to be able to broadcast to the Iranian people in their own language.

Doge certainly contributed to inefficient government, but certainly not small Government. A bunch of my American customers are complaining you just cannot get anything done in government departments that got doged

more issues for space-x

At least it was only the upper stage and not the booster (or both), that really would make a proper mess! Apparently all down to a structural failure, no engines involved.

Elon certainly seems to be on the receiving end of a giant helping of karma at the moment.

It's not karma, it's what happens when you don't build rockets properly.

Musk is famous for taking shortcuts and not following rules. That tends to have spectacular results if you are building rockets.

Well they’re approaching 500 successful falcon 9 launches, so they must know something about it.

Starship may be pushing the limits of their proven technology too far though. Or the pressure vessel that failed may have been poorly handled during shipping or in the factory, and been damaged just enough to fail, but not enough to be picked up.

He’s certainly gone all in on the Starship concept , the infrastructure alone must be costing billions to create let alone the vehicles themselves.

Because NASA never had any mishaps or accidents...

NASA never built anything, it was all contracted out. Hence the reason why the CO2 scrubber cartridges weren't interchangeable between the lunar module and the command module in Apollo 13.
