    The only point of sterilization is when you are sending a science mission probe to detect alien life. You don’t want the probe to detect earth microbes and think it originated elsewhere.

    The only point of publishing that trash is just to throw some mud on Elon to somehow establish a pattern of recklessness.

    The reason why I say that is because this article already came out just two days after the highly successful FH launch when the blogosphere and media were filled with awe and kudos. And so this article never got the visibility the authors were hoping for. Now it was resurrected again to add to the chorus of negative noise on Tesla and Elon

    Today is the one year anniversary of the Falcon Heavy launch. The Everday Astronaut is doing an anniversary replay of the event:

    So, I am back in Florida exactly one year after last time, being here for a couple of days and hoping to get a view of the crew dragon test launch. (was really hoping for the second FH launch) but need to get back to Norway before march
