Unbelievable Geoff!
Seriously impressive work from the Musk-o-teer. Private enterprise space exploration is probably the one boon from the tech-sploitation of the planet.
All the over stuff is just, er, well, stuff that we could probably do without - Alexa, self driving cars, hyperloops [seriously lets have one to get to the Amex though yeah?] but IF we’re hell bent on destroying this planet then the only way to survive is to leave and it sure as hell isn’t going to be via some government sponsored ship that gets us off this rock when the time comes.

I can't help thinking that Elon Musk is a Bond super villain who is, right now, building a base inside volcano prior to taking over the world.
This must be fake, surely? At 21mins, it clearly shows the curvature of the Earth, and we all know it's flat, right?
people who believe spacex are total fools....pure mind control cgi......watch the car he did for starters......so many CGI errors in all their trash.
In the vid posted - again the video footage cuts out at the time of landing....lol.
unreal.
It's all a fake lie people - que the insults.....i don't care.....Space....lol.

Completely agree. [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] says 'They landed it on the ship this time', but it's weird they don't have footage of that simple part. We're not talking a video signal from space, just footage from the boat that they claim in a couple of hundred miles away. Rocket due to land, footage cuts out, footage back with rocket sitting nicely on the deck. Yeah right.

This is the Falcon 9, which they've successfully recovered many times before:

In fact, during the 'Roadster' launch, they successfully recovered two Falcon 9 side boosters (that amazing twin landing we saw). It was the Falcon Heavy (the central core, and its first launch) which did not successfully land on the ship. The next Falcon Heavy launch is in October.
Here's a brief history:

This. I would still be sitting with a sheet of A4 with my name and date on it, and thats as far as it would get. What on earth would be the first sentence! How do you even start something like that.
I think I'd rather have him in charge than any of the current lot, tbh.
If you're right, can you enlighten us as to how it is the the only people to have spotted this fakery and the 'CGI errors' you mention are the usual tinfoil hatters on the Internet.
Don't you think that such claims would have been circulated and discussed more widely and by people much more credible and intelligent than you or I, if there was any semblance of credence to them?
To be fair, they have probably been on a course.
I just assumed he was joking. Best to ignore these muppets.
Normally I would agree, but I'm at an airport with time to kill before my flight so I thought I'd try to amuse myself.
