    A hug testament to private industry.


    We're being governed ruled by a geriatric Alzheimer patient/puppet whose strings are being pulled by an elitist oligarchy who believe they can manage the world... imagine the utter maniacal, sociopathic hubris!

    They said 15 minutes, but it only took 5 ... maybe hatch will be opened sooner, too ...

    Mine go back to Mercury and then Gemini..

    it is sad to grow up.
    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

    Remember when Obama said it would take 12 years and $26 billion? Musk accomplished this in half the time with $1 billion.
