THEY PULLED IT OFF! THEY FUCKING DID IT. FUCK YES!
GO SPACEX
TO THE MOON
TO THE MARRS
AND FURTHER

They didn't show the third rocket xD maybe it missed the target :P

@mngr probably didn't made it :D
But hey, they missed landing on the drone ship before :D

Gone boom with all the ship? :P

@mngr the ship always survived on latest unscheduled disassemblys

I know nothing about rocket, is taking them back to base a normal thing? Or this is really a super-fucking-wow-thing?

@mngr No, reusable rockets is something that only SpaceX have successfully done so far

@mngr they manged to land them before, but this time in an all new configuration, untested, using basically 3 rockets attached to each other, separated them in flight, flew the two boosters back and landed them simultaneously while the third center core went for a landing on a ship in the sea (hopefully made it)

@irene why do you think so??

Center core is confirmed loss
But elon said it would be a success for SpaceX if FH even lifts off and flys a couple of kilometers

@irene what exactly should humanity care about if not ridiculous ambitions?

You sure? Because everything now seems a lot more simpler and safer than 50 or even 25 years ago. @irene

FUCK YEAH! WATCHED THE LAUNCH FROM MY ROOF IN FLORIDA

@PaulTheSaltyDev Reusable DETACHABLE thrusters. The space shuttles we're already reusable "rockets". The two solid fuel thrusters were lost every flight, and I believe the tank was recovered in the ocean.

@irene why does life need to be "simple"? I think it isn't, never was and never will be. Instead of striving for more autopilot we should take on ridiculous ambitions to challenge ourselves. If it's easy we're doing subpar.

@irene please explain.

@irene what would be the right thing to compare??

They fucking did!

@irene compare it to the dinosaurs instead? :P

@irene how do you compare humans to something that either does not exist yet, or something that exists but we don‘t know of?
