FAA is now involved. ‘Free’ help is coming. They best figure this out or they’ll quickly become like Boeing.

I don’t believe that, but it’s up to them.

Ona good note, if they keep this up, my nephew will have work for life!

They are the only game in town, Chief, AND they really are a good company (harmonic problems, however, are difficult to isolate in a machanical doohickey THAT big, and powerful), AND we still gotta get to Mars.

I predict, your Neph can likely be there as long as he wants to be.

If I (not me, but he's wearing my lid) wasn't so friggin' old, hell I would wanna work there.

Oh but you are missing my point. They best fix this FAST because the government WILL get involved and it won’t be helpful on many levels.

I stand by my point, sorta.

The boss cat over at Space X is breathin' the thin air these days. I suspect IF the FAA proved to be a bother, they might get swatted. That intrigue aside, they willl be in the rocket business a long time I think.

Then again? You may be exacty right

They will be in the business for a long time. If they don’t fix this quickly then it’s going to be a LOT harder.

Couple of different images of the same cosmic activity: star-making.

Star forming regions are where interstellar dust clouds collapse under gravity, heat up, fusion starts, and depending on the size of the new star(s), it "burns" for a few million to several billion years.

The gas cloud can for 2-3 stats, or several hundred stars.

650 LY away, so we see it as it was 650 years ago. in infrared, since its from Jimbo Webb

Immediately below: NCG 2283

barred spiral galaxy, relatively closeby at 45 LY away. We've know abouat this one for over 400 years. A Local_Group (e.g., Milky Way, Andromeda, Magellenic Cloud, etc) galaxy, btw.
