Space X. Orbiting a Tesla the 06 / 02 / 18




by AXEAU » 07/02/18, 19:40

A little crazy or megalomaniac a billionaire throws his Tesla into space. Not very green but the three bodies that make up the launcher have returned to land on earth. Nice feat. Perhaps a new departure towards space conquest.
Here is the video of the live, see the last 20 minutes, the launch is a little late.

Is this a real tesla? Is that so? :) I was thinking of a car imitation!

We talked about this earlier here, Science-and-Technology / astronomy-past-the-new-star-march-2016-t14643-10.html

The most impressive is the landing of the boosters!



Is there a Tesla In Space video? : Cheesy:

I would love to but I don't think I can afford to go check ... I am not the modest webmaster of econology, no paypal! : Mrgreen:

But a video would be enough for me, if I don't have Elon's ambition, I don't have his megalomania either ... : Cheesy:

who will go to check if the tesla in orbit is a real whole tesla ... or a simple scale 1 model ... I even hope that it is a model to avoid unnecessary pollution when it falls back to earth

but this orbiting is an interesting step with the successful landing of the thrusters ... I think it is more profitable than the landing of the shuttle

sacred stroke of com to use a test flight to put into orbit an advertising object, rather than to make a simple test flight with a load just as useless but not advertising

It will not fall back to Earth, it is sent to deep space from what I understand ...

Elon is proud to send one of his cars to ET hoping that they will fall on it in a few million years ... which proves a little more his megalomania (but which billionaire is not?). .

Here is the video of the "in-space" car, live from Elon's twitter account:



There is even a live:
