Maybe the evolution of man on Earth will prevent us, at least for the time being, from venturing into space for too long a period.
I think I'll stay here, but thanks for the offer.

A huge day yesterday for Elon Musk's SpaceX program. Another successful launch of three Falcon Heavies, this time carrying the Arabsat-6A communications satellite. The three successful landings of three Falcon Heavies was a first for SpaceX, who last year managed to land two of the boosters, but failed with the third which crashed into the ocean at round 300 miles per hour. The three from three was a first for SpaceX.
The two landings at Cape Canaveral were perfect, but again, the close proximity of the camera to the landing site on the sea platform caused too much interference for the third touch down to be captured.

Tomorrow planet Earth comes close to getting itself a cosmic hair cut when a large mass of speeding rock comes hurtling in from some far off place in the solar system, and lets us know just how much of a target the blue planet really is. We've been smashed in the past and we will again be in the future.
Most of these near misses are anywhere between three and ten times further away than the moon, but not our friend, the Near Earth Object known as 2019 GC6. This asteroid will bolting past us at somewhere north of 20,000 kph and will miss Earth by 200,000 km, about half the distance between us and the moon.
It was only last April that an unseen asteroid, bigger than a warehouse zoomed up out of nowhere and passed at an even closer distance. The object, 2018 GE3, was first observed just 24 hours before it buzzed the Earth. We had less than a day's warning. And this isn't the first time we've come close to an impact. Two even larger asteroids have also passed as close in the last 18 years.

Will sleep a lot easier tonight Cyclonic thanks for that. Hehehe
Would have replied earlier but have been tunneling under the house, having coated it with anusol cream. That should do the trick will shrink it if it hits.Just though you'd want to know about the giant cosmic hemorrhoid Joe.
SpaceX had one of it's unmanned, test capsules blow up on the launch pad yesterday. Scott Manley gives a bit of insight on the matter.

Was driving home at 0045 this morning heading South East from Glasgow. I observed an air burst from a meteor entering our atmosphere only lasted several seconds but for me it was truly amazing. My first thought after the initial fright was ya fecker Cyclonic.
Falcon Heavy Launch. Oops, it's a replay of a previously posted launch.

There was to be a launch today to take supplies to the International Space Station, but it was postponed until tomorrow. An electrical problem on the ocean landing platform held up the launch.

After an aborted launch yesterday, SpaceX has just sent it's unmanned Dragon 1 space craft on it's way to the International Space Station. The craft is carrying about 5,500 pounds cargo on behalf of NASA. It was the seventeenth launch for the august body. Dragon 1 is expected to reach the ISS tomorrow.
