Only karens are saying that. Elon is an idealist and he is intellegent.

I watched both the first attempt and the second with the launch.

I was annoyed about how it was all about America and less about the World. Also hated how they would specifically specify the type of car they would travel to the launchpad with.
Other than that, loved both streams and learned a thing or two new things as well.

Yes, it was weather related, they had already scratched the launch Thursday and it was looking like sat would be a bust also. I was looking forward to a Sunday launch and missed it

Completely agree! "American rocket from American soil, American this and American that" - it went a bit overboard.

I also noticed after they entered the ISS, the "interview" they had, they didn't bother to include the Russians whatsoever. The most they got was "something something... with the Russians".

Also, to answer your question if I would go to sp "YES, YES I WOULD!"

I was one Day in space i Just wanted to See some stars and other stuff like space, i Just selled it

A week before the last launch, I bought a few hundred dollars of Tesla options -- very short term -- made a bunch. Did it before last year too -- people keep forgetting that guy does rockets lol

I would absoloutely love to go into space and just look down onto the world!

This was pretty cool to watch. We experienced history. Hope to see more from SpaceX and Elon

I hope the tesla never cross the elipse of the internationnal station...
