It looks like Charlie got his "big bada-boom"!

😁 I worry about that guy, I really do.

Well, that was a... spectacular test. Kaboom par excellence.

I'm very worried about Charlie's response when he sees this. I mean it was a big one. He may get over excited again and require medication to calm him down.

Did I hear right that the engines ignited on the pad?

As long as we're stuck using volatile, inflammable, and unstable chemicals for combustion just to get off the ground, we'll have to deal with these occasional explosions.

I'm disappointed in the lack of advancements in space propulsion over the past 80 years. We've got computers on a handheld smartphone that used to require mainframes that took up entire rooms, yet we're still igniting fire like primitive cavemen in order to fly.

It just shows you where humanity's priorites lie, and it's not in space exploration. All this talk recently about a moon base is pure hype and pie in the sky.

Yeah, I'm becoming cynical about all this.
