i made this youtube video
...
...
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?
As long as it can, bless its heart
Less than five hours the car is breaking orbit and heading to Mars orbit
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.
goddamit photoshop!
...
Think its highly dependent on its shielding as well, its going through the van Allen belts as well.
uhhhh, can't they just leave it on for a while after that?
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?
Awaiting the Initial D memes for MULTI-BOOSTER DRIFTING
Wish it was smoother, but when the Earth comes into full view it starts to stutter every time.
RIP?
Printed on the circuit board of a car in deep space
i don think that's possible
no, the stream will most likely cut off after Second Stage Cut Off, since downlink uses its antennas.

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
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.

>mfw when I first heard about this I thought it was just a meme
Musk you absolute madman
fucking kek
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.
legit?
It'd be nice if there were solar panels or RNG aboard so it can broadcast its selfie for the next billion years.
i think we will be lucky to get a day worth of footage
It wont even meet Mars m8, its too far right now, they are just drawing a bead on Mars orbit around the sun
Indeed.
...
Best ones so far
how long until they boost out of orbit?
~ 4 hours
Am I the only one who literally cried?
>tfw you will never be so pimping that you launch an electric car you made into space with a reusable rocket you made while playing david bowie's life on mars
Me too
What's the alien cloaca thing that the feed occasionally cuts to?
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.
Pneumatic
>like scifi movie
Fucking this.
Now that the US has a big rocket I expect payloads and not just empty talk about moons or marses or whatever.
yeh he just tweeted it
la creatura on soy
yes, check muskermans twitter
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.

Faggot
Yeah I think you're the only one
I did find it amazing though. It's still insane thinking about it. And I find it hilarious that he's sending a car through space.
>Future so bright, I gotta wear shades
fucking great
WTF was this? -11 min on the livefeed
I wonder who could be behind this post...
>no point of reference
nice job elon...
S2 fuel tank
This is relaxing to watch.
I can recommend this ambient music: youtube.com
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?
it's a test flight you retard
...
>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?
Mars closest approach is on July you retard, that was a test
nah
> 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
no it's too small and too far away (further away every second)
>tfw you thought Space X was really going to send a car into space
>instead we get an obvious green screen
shits cash yo
Why is starman shooting debris out? Is that ice or something?
why is poo coming out of the car'
