- Elon Musk said SpaceX will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft “immediately” because of threats by Donald Trump to cancel government contracts with Musk’s businesses.
- Musk’s announcement on his social media site X escalated a war of words with Trump that began after the Tesla CEO criticized the major tax bill being pushed by the Republican president.
- A SpaceX Dragon capsule brought two NASA astronauts back to Earth in March after they were stranded for months at the International Space Station by a Boeing Starliner capsule.
Do it, bring back NASA into full force and increase their budget.
WE’RE NOT GOING TO MARS, YOU FUCKING NAZI ASSCLOWN. IT’S A TERRIBLE IDEA.
NASA HAS LAUNCHED MANY ROCKETS FOR MANY DECADES. YOU BLOW SHIT UP BECAUSE YOU THINK THE RULES OF PHYSICS AND MECHANICS DONT APPLY TO YOU.
EVERYTHING WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU WERE DEPORTED TO A BLACK SITE.
FUCK YOU, ELMO
Nobody is going to Mars in our lifetimes
Eh, depending how old you are. I can believe somebody is going to Mars in ~50 years.
Why do I feel like the entire government is based off a 2yo building a house of cards with his bully from school.
Is he promising to leave the former US?
Dominance of this country is being fought over by a couple of petty 12 year old tyrants. It’s like a version of that Twilight Zone where the powerful kid is surrounded by people trying not to upset him, except the kids are drug-addled and senile.
By launching it?
The same spacex that hasn’t had a launch since trump took office?
The SpaceX that got 3 billion dollars to get us to Mars and didn’t get beyond blowing up a banana over the Indian ocean, that one yes
What’s the threat here? If you don’t give me money then I won’t spend it?
What if this is some 4d chess move to give more funding to NASA?
You mean… By Musk? Yikes… Does anyone have to answer that? Are you new to this reality?
