I desperately want there to be genuine competition to SpaceX.

But another billionaire? Another trumper?

oh well. let 'em burn.

I imagine it's hard not to have another billionaire as a competitor to a space company. 😬

Yeah it's such a niche market that you've gotta be super into rockets and have money to burn if you want to start one of these companies.

Yeah you definitely need to have a lot of money if you're using it as rocket fuel.

Good news in the morning. Launch pad destroyed, this will keep geofffff off the the space for a year at least. I only wish he was in the rocket.

Too bad Bezos wasn't on board. Better luck next time!

Poor Cape Canaveral.

So ehm.. he has issues with his rocket blowing prematurely?

I'll let my self out now.

Must've been the work of Enrico Pucci!
