Thanks very much! Important to get the facts right, as there's a lot at steak with SpaceX.....(Sorry! )
Thanks, and please do, because this thread will be continually bumped down by the "I prefer falling over myself to post links to a three paragraph op-ed by someone who's on 100K a year to write one piece every three weeks, because it's on a website called "Cool&EdgyTechnoBlog.com!!" crowd!
so....are the cows participants in Elon's methane engine program?
But seriously folks, there are only a dozen days left for SpaceX to do that WDR before the end of "the last week in August". I can hardly wait.Thanks for the news, Chris!

Awesome alliterative article. Really appreciate the work you do, Chris B.
Excellent! Think about the Moon for a sec. There's no atmo, no cows, and one sixth gee. There's your lander.
Maybe this belongs in that thread about using games as training tools...

Idle hands...
