- man if these dinky ass VC bait rockets are what we’re defending the west with, we’re cooked. there are dozens of college teams working in glorified garages in their free time that can shit out a supersonic sounding rocket 10x better than this on a lark, for fun.
- 1058 was the first booster I did refurb work on. First booster to fly 19 flights. First Falcon 9 to carry people to space. Rest in Pieces to the King of Kings 😭Replying to @SpaceXDuring transport back to Port early this morning, the booster tipped over on the droneship due to high winds and waves. Newer Falcon boosters have upgraded landing legs with the capability to self-level and mitigate this type of issue

- Dweeb behavior is misrepresenting code reforms that embrace global best practices to reduce per-unit costs for small buildings by conflating them with a tragedy that wouldn’t haven been averted by multiple stairwells *and* wouldn’t be subject to the aforementioned reforms.Replying to @rcmoya84The single staircase in Grenfell Tower has been an object of criticism since a disastrous fire claimed the lives of 72 people six years ago. But a bunch of dweebs online in the US think cutting back on safety regs in will improve developer profits, to "solve the housing crisis"
- Got to watch @USCRPL test the launch tower yesterday with this handsome hypersonic space pencil. excited for Saturday’s attempt at Space or Nothing, 5 years after the last go at it. Flight on!
