Space Exploration

We should have a space thread. We probably do.....the search function has been poopish lately.

SpaceX was trying to launch SN10 today. They aborted the first attempt....they're looking to try again in 2 hours.

I'm a fan of https://multistream.co/ for watching these, along with the Mars rover stuff.

I agree. But haven't you ever had an idea that was great in theory, and maybe even great in fact, but when someone asks about it, you need a "good" explanation?

"Wouldn't it be funny if I unplugged his mouse when he gets up to go to the bathroom?"
Later, "Why did you unplug his mouse?" I can't answer, "Because I wanted to watch him go on a 20-minute tirade about how technology never seems to work right." I need to say something like, "I was preventing him from sending confidential information to one of our competitors." Yeah, my plan falls apart when follow-up questions are asked, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
