I've recently been more interested in astronomy in terms of trying to figure out what I can see with the naked eye. I was really excited to have a clear night where I could see two bright objects near the moon. It was the first time I used a star mapping app (Star Walk in my case), and I was beaming to find out I was looking at Jupiter and Venus! How common is it to see formations like this so clearly? From what I've been seeing from others it seems quite rare given how many people were hyped about it on social media.

Yeah but that tripled time is still faster than anybody else.

Read some of the reviews for working at spacex from former employees. Talking about being worked around the clock.

Elon has stated before if they're going to be successful in their goals then they need to work like there's an asteroid headed towards earth and the only way to stop it is this rocket.

It took NASA over a decade to build SLS which was basically just recycled Apollo. SpaceX is designing an entirely new launch system.
