    The Falcon Heavy carried a Tesla sports car with a mannequin strapped inside. They are expected to orbit the sun for hundreds of millions of years. Watch the launch:http://nyti.ms/2GRoWEt

        Every virgin flight has used a dummy payload. Concrete usually, this time its a car.

        You do realise SpaceX rockets have been responsible for delivering vital communications links to some of the most remote and poverty-stricken parts of the world, right? Or did you just feel like a bit of virtue signalling. Get. Lost.

        I believe that we need to change the world near us. Staring into space and sending a broken down vehicle to go round and round - WHY? Please do not get cross with me. I just do not understand. No more comments please. I have work to do!

        Because no paying customer will put their multi-million dollar satellite onto an untested rocket. You do realise SpaceX are launching Starlink, a project that will deliver broadband services to the entire world? I'd call that world changing.

        Look at all those Scientific *Theories* sending rockets into space... Meanwhile Religion is still arguing about who adults can consensually take to bed while simultaneously trying to disprove dinosaur bones.

        The legacy will be kicking it on Europa or Titan and telling kids crazy Earth stories. "You mean people filled machines powered by exploding dinosaurs and drove them at high speeds only inches apart from one another!?"

        Nobody said one man only, it’s the responsibility of all rich tax evaders esp the rich who have so much to piss away at such nonsense

        Rich people don’t make their riches from outer space, they make whilst living among other human beings who provide the security and platform. They owe something back to society. I’m sorry you can’t see this and think everyone can die as the rich horde

        'they are'? Who's the 'they'? The car and the dummy? Wouldn't 'it' be a better choice to describe this? As in 'It is expected...'

        Pretty sure the plastic wont last long being hit full on by UV rays. The metallic bits will last, won't corrode.
