It seems that all the news seems to be focused on just a handful of things and virtually all of them negative so my heart just soared right now watching the successful launch and return of the massive SpaceX Heavy rocket.

For those that missed it, here is a link with some of the breathtaking videos:

I watched the launch too. It was as awesome as any space shuttle launch.

What I don't like is adding to the existing space junk by launching a Tesla into orbit.

What is good for the goose today will also be good for the gander tomorrow.

So was I. We witnessed the beginning of a new phase of space travel today.

Saw it on Fox. Wow, awesome. Glad I tuned in on time to see this.

And to think for years NASA never reused boosters. Elon figured out how to bring them back and use them again. They came back today and landed simultaneously in perfect unison. Reason enough to be proud of, and support, private industry. Elon Musk rocks!

So, I was watching the launch again online and I noticed something interesting. Watch the video HERE and pause it at 41:26 and 41:27. That’s a CGI film studio, folks. They faked it.

@TenderMercies, sorry, but I'm in Florida on an extended vacation, in the Space Coast and saw the launch live with my own two eyes. I also saw two boosters come back down. There is nothing fake, no big conspiracies- just a wonderful day for Space-X and America.
