Virgin Galactic YouTube site is not covering this well. I don't know what the problem is. I'm watching it on CNN. Excellent coverage with Neil deGrasse Tyson commentary. I wouldn't be surprised if when Richard Branson sees how much they screwed up, he goes nuts and starts firing people. Crazy that the Virgin Galactic stream didn't go live for the takeoff and CNN did. They lost most of their viewers to CNN. People on Twitter and Reddit are supposing that Jeff Bezos had the site hacked. With him going up in 9 days, I doubt he would do that. My money is on The Russians!

Unfortunately for both Branson and Bozos.. SpaceX is just soooo at another level they hardly have a chance to look competent in any industrial or economic scale. It’s like these 2 are nothing more than the ultimate Jonses. Trying to out do each other. Tbh.. both these guys have a significant chance of being landing pad skid marks. Imo.

Yeah well Elon Musk is the billionaire I despise the most. I'd actually not shed a tear if he wound up being a "landing pad skid mark".

@barjoe Certainly having a preference of billionaire to despise is well within your right. I'm not friends with any of them and no skin in the game so makes no difference. Just pointing out the obvious advantage SpaceX has developed over the competitors. The literal tsunami of both production and innovation flowing from Boca Chica is nothing short of astounding. Bozo and the Virgin are complete lightweights in this endeavor. Sayin' z'all.

@Davekp Things Change. Don't underestimate Jeff Bezos. He's a bottom line guy. His greed knows no end. Blue Origins is closer than you think. The one I dislike the least is Branson and he's got a lot of people hoodwinked. He gets knighted for robbing the Brits for £7.5 billion and even sued NHS. At least he pays some taxes, that's more than I can say for Musk and Bezos.

@barjoe Ok.. so when things change the conversation will be different from the one we are having now. I'm pleased for you that you have a favorite. Everyone needs a hero of sorts. I don't really spend time deciding which billionaire I like more than another. lol

@Davekp I don't have a favorite billionaire unless there's one who might throw some my way. I do despise Elon Musk, he's a real piece of shit, but I don't like any of these guys.

@barjoe ok.. I get your drift.. 'nuf said
