Its basically like an exchange program

I kinda just bounced into this convo. I was watching some gameplay reveals.

No matter what America still won the space race

And we're way ahead in space than any other nation

Depsite what they say, America has the best minds, infrastructures, and capabilites for spaceflight

Elon Musk Chad

I mean your not wrong but at the same time he's not right,

Russia won the race to get to space, we said fuck you and took their victory lap and went to the moon

Well russia won in a lot of firsts

But at the end of it

Who had the better capabilites

MURICA

Yes exactly

Why else would the bible of rocket propulsion

Come from America

Hell Germany even had a lot of firsts. But did they win? Nope.

Well that's what America was smart in

Recruiting the germans

Like Von Braun

I mean Sputnik has lasted longer than some Comcast satellites but either way, you right

Haha lol

Well we'll have starlink soon

Rumor has it that it's already up in the sky

To be honest starlink sounds like a Star Fox game. I like Elon's taste in naming things

I believe we have 500 hundred or so

Only 12,500 more to go

The rate they launch them is crazy, 60 flatstacked at a time, and they literally just release it without a pusher mechanism into one huge mass of satellites lol

Wow!

@Psion Lion if you like spacex named look at the rocket lab names

The last one was called "Pics or it didn't happen"

Oh my god, this is pure gold!

Yes and literally they lost footage when the 2nd satge lost speed

And the mission didn't happen

I love the rocket labs naming scheme

Lol me too

First mission was 'just a test'
Second was 'still testing'
Third mission (first one with a customer payload) was 'it's business time'

The list goes on

Although it's too bad the mission failed

Still kinda funny "Pics or it didn't happen" lived up to its name

"don't stop me now" was delayed due to weather I think
