Elon Musk, 13 years ago: A fully and rapidly reusable rocket is barely possible. SpaceX is going to try to do it. We could fail, but we're going to try to do it.
“The pivotal breakthrough that's necessary, that some company has to come up with to make life multiplanetary, is a fully and rapidly reusable orbit-class rocket.
This is a very difficult thing to do because we live on a planet where that is just barely possible. If gravity were a little lower, it would be easy. If it was a little higher, it would be impossible.
It's just a very tough engineering problem. I wasn't sure it could be solved for a while. But then, relatively recently, probably in the last twelve months or so, I've come to the conclusion that it can be solved.
And I think, SpaceX is going to try to do it. Now, we could fail. I'm not saying we're certain of success here, but we're going to try to do it. And we have a design that, on paper, doing the calculations, doing the simulations, it does work.
And now, we need to make sure that those simulations and reality agree, because generally when they don't, reality wins.”

REMINDER: @SpaceX will be attempting probably the craziest aerospace thing ever attempted tomorrow morning — Catching a 19-story tall rocket booster in mid-air with Mechazilla chopsticks
Do you remember this video from under a year ago? @Rahmazeinegypt telling off a journalist for their complicity in genocide. Every word Rahma said still holds true today!
Here's the full interview with Neil Bush, son of George H.W. Bush.
I had the chance to talk to him in Anhui.
He has a rational view of China and China-U.S. relations. A rare voice in America.
He believes most Americans won't even tolerate what he said about China ...👇
Dennis Wanjala spoke for 99.9% of Kenyans. Morara, Kasmuel and others should emulate this GenZ.
Kenyans don’t lack leaders. What we lack presently is COLLECTIVE REVOLUTIONARY ACTION on the STREETS! #RutoMustGoNow
“They are making $60 billion a year selling vaccines…

BREAKING: Acting IG Gilbert Masengeli sentenced to six months imprisonment
Justice Lawrence Mugambi: He is ordered to surrender himself to the Commissioner General of Prisons to serve his sentence. In the event he fails to surrender himself to prison, the CS for Interior must take steps to ensure he is committed to prison to serve his sentence
The Nyahururu declaration meant to Isolate HE Rigathi Gachagua is a blessing in disguise.
As for me,i dont care who the nexus to national government is.
All that matters is if the voters are getting the promised yeilds and returns in Coffee milk and tea and if the the Million
Promises made by KK government are delivered to our voters .
What the 48 Mps should know is that they lost touch with their voters when they voted yes to the very punitive finance bills in 2023 and 2024.
A press confrence to disown the DP is a diversionary tactic from the very pressing needs of their voters.
Such a presser of 48 MPs should have pressed for accountability of the missing kids of Endarasha fire amongst the current eviction of Wakulima traders from “Marigiti” .
If these Mps were in touch with their voters they should have demanded for a fair treatment of victims of house demolitions in Mathare, pipeline and Mai
Mahiu dam tragedy victims .
For now their declaration was just hot air aiming at stirring the political Landscape to scare the Deputy president out of government. As they do so the Deputy president is getting bolder and mutating into a darling of Most Kenyans.

Don't feed your babies these things.
Do you read the ingredients label?
It is unfriendly to their guts and digestive enzymes.
It predisposes them to allergies, digestive problems, mental dysregulation, eg Autism Spectrum Disorders & ADHD.
Expensive and useless.

CALL A SPADE A SPADE Kenyans now turn their attention to the racist & terrible treatment of Kenyans by indians in their own country! These stories are painful Ngai
If Adani takes our airport, the licenses and certificates of JKIA will be renamed Adani Airport Holdings LTD.
That means the airport will be known as Adani Holdings International Airport, Nairobi (AHIA)
Even my grandmother can't agree to sign such a deal.
#StopAdani
Ghai, Leo nikona ketepa!
Leteni tu Boflo, ngumu or Superloaf, na viti za kukalia,
Enter Davis Chirchir who has just bought his daughter a 20M German machine,
Kumbe Sio airport pekee they sold to Adani, hadi Energy sector!
That's why Chirchir who sold Kenya power to Adani for close to 250B
Alirudishwa Transport to continue transactions with the same Adani over JKIA
Wait, hujakasirika bado... Out of Hate for the Kenyatta Family,
Ruto agreed to rename Jomo Kenyatta international airport, (JKIA) to Adani Holdings
Just to show Uhuru the middle finger
We are pawns in a deep, intricate political labyrinth
J.J Kariuki said it how? A country of 10 billionaires and ten million Beggars!
Lest you forget:
In March 2024,
32 children were reported missing from Langas, Eldoret.
Lost without a trace.
— No comment. No pursuit.
We are led by satanists who kidnap children for rituals.
Stand up for our children.
Stand up for our country.

Barely 20 years ago, you couldn’t mention @MoiGideon’s name just like that. Dude was feared and we thought he had all the money in the world.
Today what’s happening? He’s sold Lord Errol. Sold Siginon Freight. Standard Group is barely surviving, workers haven’t been paid for months.
Is this generational wealth? Was it worth bankrupting our entire economy for, if it was going to fizzle out so fast?
These fuckers like @kipmurkomen@ckositany@davis_chirchir etc never learn because their heads are full of horse shit and not brains. They need government more than government needs them, and couldn’t last a day in the private sector.
Their grabbing of state installations whilst hiding behind shadowy outfits is due to their lack of creativity to generate fresh ideas for wealth creation.
@Kawu_KE members should be raiding their homes and protesting outside their doorsteps. It’s a battle for survival. They want to give Indians your permanent and pensionable jobs.
