i made this youtube video

>>9493726

>>9493539
For here am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do

Does anybody know how long the camera is going to last?

>>9493831
As long as it can, bless its heart

>>9493831
Less than five hours the car is breaking orbit and heading to Mars orbit

>>9493831
more then 6 hours after launch; it runs of the upper stage batteries, which will have to function for a restart at that time.

When will the plastics start melting? My car is all jelly in the summer.

>>9493809
goddamit photoshop!

>>9493831
Think its highly dependent on its shielding as well, its going through the van Allen belts as well.

>>9493851
>>9493850
uhhhh, can't they just leave it on for a while after that?

>>9493854
they already are. look at particles flying off; window is delaminating/fogging up.
Paintjob holds up so far though.

Any photos of Mars fly-by planned?

As the sun breaks above the ground
An old man stands on the hill
As the ground warms to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still

His eyes are ablaze
See the madman in his gaze
Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun

On your wings like an eagle
Fly and touch the sun
Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Look the old man in his eyes

As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God my father I fly
His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream

Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings burn to ashes to ashes his grave
Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your wings like an eagle
Fly and touch the sun

>>9493900

Possible, but it needs to travel a few orbits before Mars comes around and it can actually meet up with it. That's many years from now.

i don't think it's possible because they didn't put anything to power the cameras or send the data over such a huge distance in the car.

>>9493926
legit?

>>9493996
It'd be nice if there were solar panels or RNG aboard so it can broadcast its selfie for the next billion years.

>>9494087
I didn't cry, but the best moment for me was max-Q and booster seperation. Where the hydraulic fairings could fuck up And it all went off without a hitch.

Also watching both sideboosters land, it felt like the intro to a sci-fi movie. Dope shit.

It's not (((NASA))), it's SpaceX. Expect any big NASA accomplishment, when it finally happens in 2089, to be done on a private rocket.

All NASA does is delay, delay, switch goals, delay, delay, delay. They've done exactly two worthwhile missions in forty years, Hubble and Curiosity.

Woahhh..... so he basically did what NASA did 6 years ago except instead of launching one of the most important labs operating on mars today he chose to do something completely useless and almost sickeningly self-promoting with government money.... wooahhh.... truly the savior of humanity!

I seriously hope someone kills this cunt.

I am a non-sci brainlet hopefully this is not a dumb question, does anyone know if the car will be visible in the night sky at any point? like how the space station is visible at certain times..or is it not big enough to reflect light?

>>9494254
it's a test flight you retard

>>9494254

>>9494254
>and almost sickeningly self-promoting with government money....

Nigger it was a test launch. Are you seriously mad he put his car in for weight instead of a giant block of metal?

>>9494254
Mars closest approach is on July you retard, that was a test

>>9494260
nah

>>9494254
> he chose to do something completely useless
You're aware that noone puts real expensive payload on a maiden launch, but instead of that a mass dummy (or military scrap satellites)? Mass dummy = Car. Let's have fun.

uhhhh so they put a crash dummy in orbit?

actually nothing

>>9494260
no it's too small and too far away (further away every second)

>>9493539
>tfw you thought Space X was really going to send a car into space

shits cash yo

Why is starman shooting debris out? Is that ice or something?

>>9494290
What would you expect to see differently if it was done for real?

>>9494297

>>9494262

So basically, a waste of money since NASA could do that shit already. Listen you little fucker, science isn't some brainlet capitalist enterprise. We're not making fucking monster drinks here. Engineers and scientists are already smarter than anyone who manages them and can figure out the optimal way for space travel themselves, they just need the resources. Musk literally cannot make any improvement on space travel, or anything really that NASA scientists cannot do themselves. He's just stealing their money.

>>9494254
It was a rocket test, they normally send up concrete blocks and scrap metal for the payload during those tests.

>>9494321
Imagine being this bitter and ignorant. You must lead a very sad life.

>>9494314
idk but I expected more realistic footage. It's obvious that the stream of Starman is fake as fuck.

>>9494321

I dont know why I made this

>>9494321

Except reusable rockets

Weak fucking bait mate...

If you really are this retarded just imagine how many car models we've already made and every single one of them is tested vigorously on tracks.

I just realize I'm severely lacking crying reaction images.

>>9494321
This has nothing to do with Science, this is all engineering now, kid.

Could one see a sick space drive-by if you looked at the orbit with a telescope or is it too dark?

Is there something leaking from the car?

wrong, NASA couldn't possibly - even in 50 years - develop a recycleable first stage and cut costs down to under 100 mil per launch. The fuck are you pulling your anger from? Are you that much of a fact denying virgin?
>We're not making fucking monster drinks here
wrong
>Engineers and scientists are already smarter than anyone who manages them
One is meaningless without the other, retard

t's really funny to think that humans go to the same place as roaches after we die

>>9494366
>failing for an obvious green screen.
It's pretty obvious is fake m8. If the car is on LEO it would be impossible to have the Earth be that small on the footage. The car has to be far as fuck for it to show the Earth be that size.

STOP FEEDING THE TROLLS FOR FUCK'S SAKE

Original. Daft Punk can fuck off.

https://youtu.be/DWMPe3wF9jQ?t=41

>>9494397
It's not on LEO though. Didn't you see the orbit?
Why don't you view the footage before talking shit?

>>9494397
>If the car is on LEO it would be impossible to have the Earth be that small on the footage.
It's not in LEO. The whole point of this part of the mission is to put it in the Van Allen belt and blast it with radiation for a few hours.

>This is Science Officer Tralk from Titan Observation base to the Federation Command
>They just put a luxury designated surface vehicle in orbit
>This confirms my suspicions that the Apes have completely lost it
>I advise termination of the project, there is nothing to be achieved here

>>9494397
That's a lot of speculation if you don't know the focal length of the lens.

I wish this thing would fly in space forever, so that some alien species in 100+ years could find it and be like, "who the fuck would shoot a car into space?"

>>9494437
For the last fucking time
ITS GOING TO APPROACH MARS ORBIT AROUND THE SUN NOT ORBIT AROUND MARS
MARS IS TOO FAR TO SEND PROBES RIGHT NOW

>>9494436
it's gonna go to an orbit through a burn in ~3 horus that reaches somewhere near the asteroid belt at its furthest; estimations are that it wont hit anything for ~1 billion years.

So consider your wish granted.

>>9494436

>>9494427
>The whole point of this part of the mission is to put it in the Van Allen belt and blast it with radiation for a few hours.
I'm pretty sure that's not the point of the mission.

I thought the only reason it's in a parking orbit for 6 hours is because they're waiting for the correct moment to make the trans-Mars injection.

>>9494437
>he went through all that trouble just to get a cool background for his PC

>>9494437
You're an idiot, you don't send an expensive payload on a test flight.
>>9494448
You're an idiot, it can theoretically reach mars but the payload vehicle can't.
>>9494427
You're an idiot, it's not there to be blasted with radiation.

>>9494451
>of this part of the mission
Yes, it is.

>>9494448
Same thing applies. Why send a freaking car when you can send a probe to do scientific studies. Space launches cost millions, instead of using it for some publicity stunt why not use it for science?

>>9494463
>it can theoretically reach mars but the payload vehicle can't.
So it cant, right retard?

>>9494450
>aliens are space mexicans

>>9494466
Yeah, lets put more millions inside a rocket that we dont even know if it will survive Max-Q
If anything goes wrong we can just buy more space sensor stuff from Space Walmart, its not like they take months to be prepped

Learn about how day and night is supposed to work in the heliocentric model.

>>9494466
Because sending something like a probe or a rover that costs a lot of money and a lot of time inside a thing has has never been tested before and has a 50/50 chance of going boom is a great idea, right?

>>9494087
I got pretty close

>>9494210
>All NASA does is delay, delay, switch goals, delay, delay, delay
I mean it isn't their choice, funding is from the government and when you get a party change that means the new party will change what the other party planned for at nasa

>>9494498
Nice ad hominem!
There is zero reason to stay in an orbit for 5 hours if your not even planning to do a MTO. All news paper articles mention the time in the VAB and claim that it's because they want to test the effects on the 2nd stage. Admit defeat already.

>>9494481

>>9494505

>>9494509
Kek

Earth has suddenly gotten massive, what the fuck?

>>9494537
Without any fact checking I would guess it's in an elliptical orbit.

>>9494463
Then he should have sent a cinderblock, and not a perfectly functioning car. Even if it's only a tenth of a percent of the cost of the launch, the production of that car used rare earth elements that are in short supply, energy, and perhaps most of all, people's time and effort. A chunk of concrete would have accomplished all the same practical goals with a fraction of the energy and resources, and would have been easier to sterilize because of its non-porosity.

Goddamnit, I'm sick and tired of rich playboys wasting shit because they think it's funny.

>>9494537
>>9494541
Yeah, I think that's how they can gain speed.

>>9494087
I shed a single manly tear.

>>9494546
Wasted money isn't wasted, it goes to paying people who then spend or invest it.

And If you care so much about the rare earth elements then you'll just need to go to Mars now to get them back.

>>9494087
i dont cry easy but if i did id have cried def
felt immense joy thouh

>>9494546
They stripped the car of its batteries, motors, and other heavy/valuable components before launch. It's basically an empty metal shell.

>>9494541
>>9494549

I thought they were flying through the van allen radiation belts? Not getting closer to earth.

Bullshit, Elon just wants to have the best looking ride when he arrives on Mars

>>9494546
>Then he should have sent a cinderblock, and not a perfectly functioning car
And miss the incredible marketing stunt?

>>9494347
Now to be fair, NASA had reusable boosters. They didn't have landing legs though so they were expensive to recover and refurbish from salt water.
If NASA's bureaucracy had a brain, they would have done landing legs decades ago. Unfortunately the bureaucracy doesn't listen to the brains down in JPL.

>>9494564
Orbits go round in a loop.

>>9494546
>wasting a perfectly fine cinderblock

They should have sent you with the rest of your stupid family

>>9494561
They didn't strip it of anything. They even set the radio to play "Life on Mars" (not that it would be audible in the vacuum of space). The car was perfectly functional upon loading.

>>9494570

>http://www.motortrend.com/news/like-rocket-story-behind-spacexs-plan-launch-tesla-roadster-space/

>It was quickly determined the car needed to be stripped. After all, the only launch it was designed for was a stoplight drag. All the glass had to go, as did the battery. With the battery out, there was no need to keep the drivetrain in, either, so that went, too.

>>9494429
Lol
More like "bring this Musk in for debriefing, it's time he knows why humans can't leave Earth"

>>9494589
A concrete block of the same curb weight as the car would only cost $54, and require only limestone and silicate rocks to create — both things available in virtually limitless quantities.

This, and not just young people but the whole general public. All this Elon vs. NASA shitposting and whatever else is stupid, I'm all for anybody who puts resources into space exploration and drives interest in science and tech by doing it.

Even if the Falcon Heavy wasn't doing anything new, it at least means that there's another company out there that's capable of manufacturing top-level space launch equipment, and that in turn should mean that companies like Boeing have to step up their game and can't rely on getting away with endless delays just because they're the only ones who know how to build this stuff.

It's some girl that was going to accuse Elon of sexual harassment. I think she ought to be done screaming about now.

the stream went down

Live steam just ended?

I have a great laugh then I look at those pathetic leftist bullshit at twitter, like while people starve, don't have education, etc etc, rich white boys like Elon have money to shot expensive cars into space with no consequences.

Since we decided this one man represents an entire political ideology. I don't understand why we did that.

One billionaire doing something worthwile with his money, while others just buy golden toilettes. Your attention goes in the wrong direction.
Otherwise I actually agree.

oh god

You can easily extend the sentiment to all expenditures on unnecessary things like the latest smartphone, any music or entertainment whatsoever, or literally any shred of consumerism outside of basic necessities. If you have any resistance to that thought, you have your answer.

Its falling.

>fun dummy payload instead of concrete
>OMG THIS IS BULLSHIT HE COULD HAVE FED NIGGERS WITH THAT MONEY

>>9495664
There is having a window into the world and there is having a new smartphone every year.
There is culture and there is consumer dog food.
Don't put everything inside one basket.

NEW STREAMWHERE?

I wanna see the final transfer burn

I think starman just reentered the earth atmosphere

NEW STREAM WHEN

>>9493851
>>9493831

12 hours after launch. Camera's are tied to the Roadster batteries. It's been about six hours since launch, so another 6 horus--puts it at 3am-ish into February 7th, 2018. The feed will die after that, and the Roadster + Starman will cruise into the billion year elliptical Mars orbit.

>>9494132
>>9494087

>Elon Musk was asked during the presser what his feelings were during the entire launch and the success of the Falcon Heavy
>Elon Musk: "I'm trippin' balls man."

Sums up this entire thing, every single part of it.

>>9495885
The feed is already dead, unless theres a new one up

>>9494483

Its hilarious when he talked about the dual simultaneous core landing, and how real it is because of how fake it looks. That we have CGi that's better than this today, and that it still surprised him beyond words that it worked.

>>9495561
REEEEEEE WHY DO PEOPLE GET TO DO THINGS WITH THEIR MONEY?! GIB GIBBS ME DAT!!!

>>9495586
this

>>9494087
I work at Tesla and we watched this on a live stream today. I teared up a bit because even though Spacex did all the work, everyone around me was cheering and wooping every time the roadster came into view. The moment Life on Mars started playing and showed the roadster everyone was cheering and screaming. It's one of those moments I know I will think about often when I am old.

>>9494254
Shh, the reditors are trying to lick mr. Welfare billionaires balls and give him free advertising right now, they don't want to be bothered.

>>9494352


I can't wait until the Earth is small enough that we get an actual real picture of its entirety for the first time ever. Maybe they can Photoshop a composite picture and put Starman on it I'm sure it will excite your R*ddit erection into stiffness

I fucking hate this fucking guy, he could've send a scientific mission instead decided to send a stupid car with a stupid dummy.

new livestream fucking where

>>9495993
You should hate him for his government handouts to which the taxpayers have no say. As for the payload as many other people I've said this is a test flight and they normally would use concrete or plain steel and its place, so you're missing the point here for why you should hate him. But if I have to spell it out for you maybe critical thinking isn't your Forte.

>>9496004
That idiotic car is probably 60k dollar maybe more plus the idiotic dummy. Those resources could been employed in a high-risk scientific mission given to some university to build something more favorable for the scientific community.

>>9496027
You dumb fuck its an unproven rocket on a test flight, the dummy payload or mass simulator was either going to be a boring inert block of concrete or a fucking Tesla roadster, last time Space X did a cheese wheel, at least this time the roadster has cameras all over it giving us great space porn views.

>>9496027
Well that would imply that they actually want the common man to benefit from anything they are doing. The fact is technology is far more advanced than anything that we have seen, with the Pentagon UFO black budget projects coming to light they probably have technology that could revolutionize the entire world and eliminate . Many different problems that eventually lead to human suffering and death. Yet everyone starts drooling at the mouth when they see the flavor of the month billionaire playing with his toys. So yeah, this is just another side show circus while everyone forgets that 1% of the population is essentially holding everyone else in a playpen and poking us with sticks while showing us cool videos. But hey Elon Musk he's a cool guy right up vote please.
