BREXIT built on deceit delivered by liars

The people who passed off a pair of gloves as *two* items of PPE may not be entirely honest.

So did I, the commentary was a bit off putting but the actual landing procedure was incredible, I’ve trouble landing a drone in the back garden.......... well my back garden and I’ve got control and can see it.

That is just mind boggling, from the take off, following it into space (I still don´t know how that is done) and then to park the darned thing not only the right way up, but dead on the spot with out any reversing backwards and forwards After all he is still only a learner at 10 lessons.

Yes Jan I’ve been watching the development of SpaceX, that’s the first time that particular Starship rocket ship design has landed successfully the previous two crashed landed when close to the ground
They’ve land other model successfully, one even onto a ship at sea.
Incredible technology from a private firm with NASA support.

The film looked a bit 'doctored' to me at the point of landing (and the audio) - but I'm only looking on the phone n possibly I've been reading too many conspiracy theories!
