No, not the void between Smallman’s ears, but the vacuum beyond our atmosphere…

Just watched NASA land the Perseverance Rover on Mars, it’s basically sci-fi, check out how complex this was:

With Elon’s billions, it looks like we could see a human on Mars in my lifetime, fairly fuckin impressive imo.

        Dan It’s a fairly shit watch dues to the time lag, but I find it fascinating all the same.

        A scientist on 5 live reckons they’ll use the moon as a launching pad as it’s easier and uses less fuel. I can see Space X enabling this.

        I’d also like to see Richard Branson, Piers Morgan and Richard Hammond commandeer the flight.

          Surely they should be reserved for the next ‘Sun / Solar’ mission, just to make sure?

          Was reading about this a while back, I think Elon’s idea is to build everything in orbit, which he believes will be even easier than the moon. The issue is the amount of propellant needed, think NASA is still keen on a nuclear option with Space X going for standard ish rocket fuel. I could be wrong on that though.

          They can put a man on the moon but they can’t put one on Kristen Stewart.

          Not quite a Rover 216 of koolness but not bad all the same.

          shame about the old space. Was a great way to spend a Sunday.

          I heard Coxy and Pepe were starting something new.

          What an awful video this is, painfully boring.

          Thanks for sharing.

          Watching Bezos trying to muster genuine empathy towards Shatners experience was like watching a psychopath trying to deliver a eulogy for a grandparent they had bludgeoned to death.
