Comfy

if it overshot its intended orbit how was it possibly a success...?
that fucking half jew hipster half fag has a fucked up metric for success.
Camden Morgan
Ship wouldn't be going anywhere without muh tax dollars.
Kayden Wilson
It just gives you more time to pick your spot
Nolan Wood
The goal was never mars, but to tests its launch capability.
Spoiler: it is capable
Juan Nguyen
What's the point of the car?
Carson Sanchez
>what a subsidies
latimes.com
and that was 2015, musk is king of subsidies making companies and products payed by tax payers and selling those companies for private gains.
Cooper Howard

What's the payload it can deliver into mars? Either orbit or ground.
Julian Sullivan
How is it supposed to land on Mars? Does it even have a parachute?
Jeremiah Rivera
wrong direction dude.

Asher Roberts
something cheap and heavy to send into space....
plus think of the free advertising
Ian Rivera
it wont; it will just orbit around Mars
Logan Thomas
hurr. i beliebe a member of the "chosen" sent a car inside a rocket to space.
if you believe this... propaganda has done wonders with you. Might as well just operate a tv into your brain because it's not like you have your own thoughts anyway.
Gabriel Mitchell
Q predicted this
Landon Hill
bumping to give me a second to back-of-the-envelope an upper bound on this
Austin Lee
Its almost as if building and launching rockets is stupidly expensive and makes for shitty profits.
Christopher Jenkins
how can u drive a car in space? fake and gay
Ryan Young
What else did he predict?
Elijah Howard
So long, Space Nigger.
Kevin Richardson
Is that real person driving?

It's Elon Musk.
John Ward
I hope you hang yourself
Luis Clark
Fucks sake binland
Aaron Cook
It's electric so it doesn't need air and fuel to drive.
Asher Robinson
~16000kg
Chase Fisher
But there’s no gravity pushing the car down and there’s no pavement where the rubber from the tires can provide traction (with the down force assistance of the gravity).
In space, That shitty car with the quality of a 90s Kia would do nothing but spin its wheels until it runs out of power.
Thomas Wilson
Clarification: Musks tweet was poorly phrased. The Roadster has not passed Mars. The 3rd burn went on too long and the car will overshoot/exceed Mars orbit and wind up somewhere in the asteroid belt.
I just wish they would turn the Starman camera back on. Still images if not video should still be very possible to receive.
Henry Morgan
THEY CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
Anthony Davis
64 tonnes

but that's where the actual aliens are. We can't see that

Are you trolling?
Jayden Garcia
>I live in a country where a private company, not even a government, can launch a car to mars for the lulz
What a time to be alive and damn the USA kicks ass.
Daniel Collins
>64 tonnes
that's to LEO
>~16000kg
Is that a published figure? Seems believable. I got ~10,000kg by using the ISP of the Merlin engines, but I would assume they'd be using something more energy-efficient for trans-martian insertion/capture

Fuck off with your feels.
Elon Musk is at the mercy of the government teet.

So how did that guy get down? Did they use a big parachute or something?

noob
t. Aerospace Engineer
Connor Morgan
>launches a car into space
not only is this pointless, it's one gigantic advertisement for his company. stop sucking Elon's cock for no reason.
Charles Mitchell
lmao trudat, musk btfo
Nicholas Richardson
proof that it has the reserve to go to Mars or even further.
Doesn't matter to engineers, matters for PR.
BTW, it's now on an orbit that intersects with Earth.
Jace Nguyen
my fucking sides
Hudson Carter
I just used the Ideal Rocket Equation. What is your preferred BOE estimatation method?

such tragic fool-bait, it makes me feel even more down about humanity. why do people ignore obvious lies ?

Core booster hit the water at 300 mph. I wouldn't call that a success.
Hunter Adams
And yet went to the United States of America to accomplish his dream. Almost like he knew every other country was incapable.
