"oh by the way I should I think I might have mentioned this to you I heard SpaceX is actually working on a DARPA project where they're supposed to bring in some they're supposed to be able to capture Tomahawk missiles which is sounds insane but okay that's that's just inside yeah"


My take: I wouldn't bet a dime on this rumor being true.

Chris  Whoever loves correction loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid.

To the maximum extent practicable, the Federal Government shall plan missions to accommodate the space transportation services capabilities of United States commercial providers. US law http://goo.gl/YZYNt0
