RE: Is Elon Musk Really Planning To Send A Car To Space?

in #news7 years ago

This is certainly achievable. The question is if it is worthwhile to bring his car. If this car is going it is going instead of something else, such as scientific equipment. It will be a balance between investor attraction and scientific data.

Sort:  

The car is only being used for this first mission as a dummy payload. Since it's the first mission for this kind of rocket, they don't want to risk blowing up actual expensive scientific equipment. I have mentioned this in the post.

A very expensive never-ending road trip and no stopping to see the sights. Hmmm.
