This is not a scene from a film. This actually is a car and an astronaut dummy in space with david bowie playing on its music system. Far above the world. Now its time to leave the capsule if you dare. This bizarre but very real image came after the launch of the falcon heavy rocket from Kennedy Space center in florida last night. The successful launch of the most powerful and largest rocket since the shuttle has been called a game changer in space exploration. In part, due to its reusable boosters which have returned to earth. Two spectacularly landing together in florida, the third had a less successful landing, crashing into the sea. However getting bigger and heavier payloads into space is a major breakthrough for this commercial space company. Seeing the two boosters land in synchronisation, really like the simulation. It makes you think it can be a scalable approach. You could imagine large numbers of those just coming in and landing, taking off, landing, doing many flights per day.
