For the first time in almost a decade, NASA and SpaceX are to launch US astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS)
from American soil. Following a delayed green light, NASA will again be firing its own crew into space on Wednesday, 27 May,
at approximately 9.30pm UK time. NASA's last manned spaceflight to take off from the US was on 8 July 2011, at which point
the Space Shuttle programme was retired. From its first flight in 1981, the Space Shuttle programme launched 135 times -
133 of which were successful. The tragic failures...

Landing rockets on barges and sending Teslas to space.
You think these things are really happening?
I saw Elvis at 7-11.
Of course they are happening.
Focus your energy on something more important and productive: Hating Trump.
These new space capsules make the space shuttle seem like a rotary dial dinosaur.
When you walk in, instead of seeing thousands of toggle switches, you see state of the art touch screens.

I think Donald is supposed to attend the launch, isn't he?

Grissom, White & Chaffee died during a pre-launch test before the first Apollo shot.

Yes, unfortunately. Will be interesting to see how he turns it into a campaign rally.

I usually feel like launching my load when I see a rocket launch.

They died. So it doesn't count as a shuttle? ok.
There was another accident within 3 years before or after the one in the article, where they landed in an alternative airstrip, right?

Apollo 1, which caught fire was on Jan. 27, 1967. The first Shuttle launch was on April 12, 1981. There was no such thing as a shuttle in the '60s or 70's. The Challenger disaster was in January, 1986. The Columbia disaster was February 1st, 2003.
Hope that helps.

Showing your true colors finally. Don’t deal in facts, just feelings and hatred.
At least you are finally being honest with yourself / us.

That's right, I hate the cancerous tumor and his enablers who are destroying the United States.
100,000+ Covid 19 deaths and growing
20% unemployment
Cratered economy
Making America Great Again, aided and abetted by selfish fools like Left Shitter.

pathetic troll defines what he is to a tee.
"Meet the press" used to be the gold standard for journalism decades ago.
Left wing socialist Jew, chuck todd, allowed the attorney general's remarks to be edited in "fake news" fashion.
We expect that kind of bullshit propaganda from the supermarket tabloids. NOT from "meet the press".
Screw, Kierland, Diego, etc...are prime examples of weak minded sheep who blindly follow these left wing propagandists.
Now I have to wait until Saturday to launch my load? Damn!

Why wait? The average healthy male can easily bust 3-5 loads daily without problem.

It's a special occasion, so I decided to save up a thick load. I plan to whistle the Star Spangled Banner when they are doing the countdown. 6, 5, 4, 3...
Then when the rocket launches I will launch and see how far I can send my payload. Rack!

Who gets to own Mars' resources?
whoever has the biggest cock and balls. Duh.
That won't be the US. What is the true future of Mars? What do you think they've found to make it profitable to rush there?

The only way humans even exist on Mars, is indoors. Meaning massive sealed structures like greenhouses.
As for your assertion that the US doesn't have the biggest cock and balls?
As usual, you're wrong.
Sure China has a billion more in their military, but being yellow, they've got tiny cocks and balls.

The US is currently spit-roasted by Israel and China.
A domed city is no big deal. What's on Mars which isn't on Earth? or won't be?

The horrah!
Yet another one of SpaceX's Starship prototypes is toast.
On Friday, SpaceX conducted the fifth test-firing of a Starship rocket at its private launch site in Boca Chica, Texas.
The vehicle, called SN4, was the fourth version of what is eventually supposed to be SpaceX's pioneering and fully reusable spacecraft.
The experimental vehicle exploded during an operation to test-fire its Raptor rocket engine on Friday afternoon. A fireball erupted
from what appeared to be a fuel leak, causing the rocket to catastrophically explode....
Wait I am confused. Is the explosion fake or only the company?
