After a few failed attempts, SpaceX’s Starship makes its first successful landing…

I’m of the generation -though I arrived to it very late- that’s still blown away by technological advances in the space program… a program that, sadly, seems to have been on the backburner since the heady days of the Cold War.

I also know that for all the grief -some very much self-inflicted- that Elon Musk gets, one can’t help but be impressed by both Tesla and SpaceX. It’s truly incredible that someone has managed to make a successful car company -not an easy feat on its own as countless other attempts by other individuals have failed!- but also change the paradigm of what cars can be by moving to electric…

…and with SpaceX, the company is pushing the U.S. space efforts forward into fascinating new directions.

If it weren’t for this damn pandemic and global warming (which seems scarier and scarier with each new scientific revelation), I’d be yelling out at what a fascinating time it is to be alive!
