One of the guy’s other companies shot a Falcon 9 last night carrying Starlink satellites to orbit, then tonight (Friday) he shot a Falcon Heavy (aka “BFR”) into orbit carrying a school bus-sized Hughes comms satellite. Both launches were flawless, and all three boosters were recovered safely, to be reused. Tonight’s were the 211th and 212th such recoveries.

I don’t really care what he does with Twitter/X. It’s a social media platform, providing a service that’s fun for some, interesting for some, but hardly essential for … well, anything. If it goes away, I might miss it a little, but not the way I miss $1.79 gas, affordable groceries, or even my not-too-far-away kids.

Well Done!
