A nice way to say it exploded again

“SpaceX's engineering culture, considered more risk-tolerant than many of the aerospace industry's more established players, is built on a flight-testing strategy that pushes spacecraft to the point of failure, then fine-tunes improvements through frequent repetition.”
They probably shouldn't have hired this guy as their lead scientist.

Why not? He never burned up upon re-entry?
I loved when James got excited about this as if it was an own.
He doesn't know how experiments work. Changing variables to see what happens. You know....how you build things
James: "idiot Wright Brothers, why didn't it fly right the very first time and look like todays jets"

I'm not a fan of Mr. Musk but I really believe that our future will be interstellar if we can stop squabbling and killing each other over dirt here on this damned pale blue dot. The rate that we're learning how things work is absolutely, wonderfully insanely phenomenal. I was less than a year old when the Atari 2600 hit retail, and now we've got gazillionaires flying into space, the Internet, AI that can essentially replicate reality, the LHC, amazing space telescopes, cyborgs, mind reading, I could go on for hours.
What a incredible transitional time we live in. =)

Interstellar travel, unless we can change/overcome the physical nature of the universe, is never going to happen. Humans are stuck here.
