BASED MUSK ABOUT TO CHANGE SPACE FOREVER!
T-Minus 90 minutes!
If successful, will usher in new era of reusable boosters to dramatically reduce the cost of accessing space by an order of magnitude.

Wew rockets that don't blow up? Not possible.
Blue Origin beat them to it a couple of weeks ago:
"Blue Origin sticks rocket landing, a major step toward reusable spaceflight"

THIS
>>58996674
eh who cares last time that happened it was fine
USA USA USA!
>>58996808
Blue Origin only reached sub-orbital altitude, and is much slower and smaller. Falcon 9 is a totally different beast.
Most people from SpaceX that I interact with are between the ages of 20 and 40. It is uncanny.

Cape Canaveral AIR FORCE BASE.
You do not understand how tight the Military-Industrial Complex is when it comes to Aerospace.
Need to emergency launch an X-37? Don't have an Atlas V ready? Oh, a Falcon 9 that is now rated for something like an X-37 is ready? Yeah, we're gonna need that.
>>58996808
BO did a great thing, but there is a massive difference between that tiny thing carrying nothing and a massive rocket capable of putting full-sized satellites into deep orbits.
>>58999078
Why exactly would the Air Force need to launch something right this instant?
Even if they needed to they could get the paperwork filed fast enough to buy the thing. Take it from an Air Force guy.
>>58999745
Last month or so a similar Air Force project ended in an explosion.
38 MINUTES TILL BLAST OFF
>>58996595
Keep me posted, can't get comfy at the moment
>>58999745
When I mean an emergency launch, 30 to 45 days. In the event a Soviet or Chinese "test" "accidentally" knocks out a KEYHOLE or CRYSTAL and maybe even a SACDIN sat, we'd need to replace it in a hurry.
There's a reserve sat or two for critical military services but a launcher may or may not be available.

>>59000353
Neither country would dare do something so openly hostile. You know how hard it'd be to hit one of our satellites? It could only be viewed as intentional.
>>58999897
The fact SpaceX is using an Air Force launch at all means the military is interested in having this work. They wont take it.

This is your obligatory reminder that Elon Musk used to be bald.
>>58999745
For exactly like that situation when the shuttle was stuck up in orbit, and they crashed it because 16 days is insufficient time to launch another rocket
So how many niggers are we shooting into the sun tonight?
Anybody gonna venture a guess for what will go down if the rocket blows up with its entire payload again?

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

If there really are AYY LMAO's in space and the gov is trying to cover it all up, why is spacex and other allowed to privately make rockets and go to space?

>Blue Origin
>Blue Origin is an American privately-funded aerospace developer and manufacturer set up by Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos. The company is developing technologies to enable private human access to space with the goal of dramatically lower cost and increased reliability. It is employing an incremental approach from suborbital to orbital flight, with each developmental step building on its prior work. The company motto is "Gradatim Ferociter", Latin for "Step-by-Step, Ferociously" or literally "Gradually Ferocious". Blue Origin is developing a variety of technologies, with a focus on rocket-powered Vertical Takeoff and Vertical Landing (VTVL) vehicles for access to suborbital and orbital space.
One thing I do love is the privatization of space flight. It incentivizes billionaires like that to invest in space travel.
When no bae to call you over for engine and chill.
While we're waiting
You guys should look into watching The Expanse, good sci fi thats recently come out with 4 episodes with more realism put upon certain aspects of space travel.

Boosters are very VERY expensive.
Normally they just get ditched into the ocean when they're decoupled after doing their job.
The idea behind this is to recover that booster instead of ditching it and save oodles of money by reusing them.
This will basically cut the price of space travel in half if it works consistently.
OH NO!! DAMN YOU, ISIS!!!

Nice looping GIF SpaceX
>>59004099
actually it's worthless because the government pays for it anyway
when you spend 7 years labor and 1+ billion on a special payload like a science satellite, and have the choice of:
>vehicle with 80% success rate that costs 10 million per launch
>vehicle with 99% success rate that costs 2 billion per launch
you take the 99% success rate. spacex is basically waste disposal service

The 1st stage will either crash or successfully land in Cape Canaveral. Important part is that the payload didn't get asploded like last time though.
>>59004342
Space X launched a rocket with onboards supplies and satellites, and its a reusable Rocket.
All that remains to see is IF it manages to land.

Now for the touchdown.
So are SpaceX making rocketry a spectator sport? Because I am so cool with that.
