    The way I see Elon Musk is a real world version of Hank Rearden from Atlas Shrugged.
    Damn, son! Where'd you find this?

    in their latest rocket landing experiment, they managed to land it though one of its legs weakened causing the rocket to topple and explode.

    well, at least they'll know where to fix and beef up next time.

    they should've used retracktable/flexible legs to help cushion the landing, like in old Looney Tunes cartoons ^_^

    or maybe deploy net around the rocket after landing.

    mahirap kasi dito sa latest nilang experiment e floating platform sa sea. kaya konting alon lang e tataob. di tulad nung unang landing e sa ground.
