Every time a government official has to say "SpaceX", I have to smile a little. Well done, Elon. Well done.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Well we have several SpaceX threads, but each dedicated to a specific news story.  This thread seemed the most generic, so I'm necro-ing it.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)
