Jeff is testing his rocket again, apparently the booster will probably be lost.

Sweet, not often you're gonna see a rocket flight with an almost certainty of the booster blowing up.
in hold for over 4 minutes now... what could possible be the cause?
shit, something just vented
>>8393037
they're just double checking the staging
>>8393022
Do they have a technical stream like space-x
"These are the largest windows in space"
Quality commentary, quality rocket.
>>8393025
Watch the first flight of falcon heavy
Obligatory post
>>8393042
No, I don't think so. It's a wonder they stream it at all, they're very secretive.
>>8393052
They're getting less secretive now that they've got a working rocket to parade around.
>>8393022
it wont work
T-1 MINUTES ERRYBODY
And we have another hold at seconds to go.
>>8393065
GAAAH Blueballed again!
OH SHITTT
And Lift Off
Elon Musk on suicide watch again
holy shit it kept on flying
the g-force inside the capsule doesnt look like much fun
>>8393095
better than being ded
>>8393095
Neither is a RUD right under your ass
Anyone else think that the crew capsule was shaking a bit much as the LES was firing? Looks like it would be a much bumpier ride than Dragon's LES.
The booster only just now cut the engine. Wonder why they're bothering to send it all the way.
>>8393104
so they can suicide burn it for the memes
Capsule has landed. Booster getting ready for reentry.
And booster is on the ground. Suck it elon musk.
only 20% on fire at the end
Phil is getting fucking hyped
>>8393104
Just to see if any kinks would occur. No real reason to or not to.
Dayum, they landed it.
gg
>Rocket didn't explode
What does Jeff know that Elon doesn't?
Stay out of my territory.
>not thanking Elon musk on Twitter today for such a great job with his rocket
beautiful launch, glad everything went off successfully, it really is an exciting time for the spaceflight industry
>>8393022
Friendly reminder that was the fifth time that particular rocket had been launched and recovered. Not that model, that actual motor
>>8393022
>giant flying dick spotted over Texas
>>8393136
How to use insect spray on the launch pad?
>>8393022
Did I miss something or did the crew capsules second rocket fail to fire just before it hit the ground?
>>8393897
Neither of their concept videos show any landing rockets. I don't think they have them. They're just pomfing on some very dusty ground.

rofl bezos doesn't know how to do anything right...
>>8393924

the video shows the "booster" landing
Though the landing is shit and all the vehicles are very unstable
Why does it look like a dildo?
>>8394321
Marketing.
>>8393022
>hitting the ground at 16 mph
sounds healthy
jesus christ. why did they have to make it look like a giant schlong? i mean, shuttles are generally phallic looking as it is, but this one takes the cake.
>>8394894
fucking this

>being this much of a pleb to not recognize the symbolical meaning of the penis shaped rocket
