April 12Apr 12 Who hired all those spectators at the launch site to lie and say they did see a real rocket blasting up into the air? It was just a helium balloon, floating up slowly. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

It just gives them more VKL's to continue creating their drivel. 🙄
April 12Apr 12 Can someone explain the technicality behind the re-entry map that shows the vehicle heading West from the West coast of New Zealand across to South Australia then it shows an abrupt change of direction "on a dime" to head in the expected north-easterly direction toward to West coast of the US? Edited April 12Apr 12 by JonP01
April 12Apr 12 The re-entry should be performed in a west to east direction, as the speed of the Earth's rotation helps a bit with respect to the re-entry velocity. I can only assume that any "abrupt change of direction" indicated on the map was a glitch.

We used to ride motorcycles with a woman how was completely convinced of this. Never rode with her again. 🦇💩😵💫 Tom MAKA = Make America Kind Again
