Some people want to believe some people don’t want to believe. Some people are realists, which is why I assign percentages, figure 50/50 chance of “aliens” regularly visiting this earth

An asteroid treasure box lands on Earth on Sunday — and Canada will get a piece of it

 

A spacecraft that has travelled more than 950 million kilometres is dropping off a care package on Sunday: samples from an asteroid that lies more than 100 million kilometres from Earth.

 

NASA's OSIRIS-REx (Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security-Regolith Explorer) launched in 2016 destined for an asteroid named Bennu. Its main mission: to stick an arm out, "high-five" the asteroid and then vacuum up some of the debris, referred to as "touch and go." 

 

It successfully did so in 2020. Now, the rocky samples — roughly 250 grams in total, the largest ever to return to Earth — are on their way to be studied by science teams, including those from Canada.

For reference, Jupiter is about 800 million km from the sun and Saturn is about 1.5 billion km away.  The Earth is 150 million km from the sun.

That's 68 SpaceX launches this year.  23 more scheduled before the end of the year.

 

https://en.wikipedia..._Heavy_launches

 

Apart from Starship, they have not had a failure since February, 2021, when one booster failed to land back on the drone ship.  2 similar failures in 2020.  They have not had a launch failure since 2016, when one rocket blew up on the pad, and 2015 when one blew up in the air.

Yes, to be honest, you have a few select politicians (AOC, Elizabeth Warren) and the DOJ going up against Musk, but at the same time he's delivering 6+ secret US military payloads a year.  They kind of need him.

How many Teslas does each one of these launches negate in terms of carbon emissions?

It was a NASA launch.

Current rocket launches have a negligible effect on total carbon emissions — Everyday Astronaut found they accounted for 0.0000059 percent of global carbon emissions in 2018, while the airline industry produced 2.4 percent the same year.

The total worldwide jet plane fleet size currently counts 28,674 aircraft, with 23,513 active and 5,161 grounded, and we can see a favourable trend over the last three months.

SpaceX.  A private company.  ie. not Tesla (a different, publicly-traded company).
