Thats pretty cool to think about. Alot of people seem to be already aware there is a high chance Yusaku Maezawa us the man going to the Moon. Alot of 'are you going to the Moon?' tweets. Also, there is this cryptic tweet he posted. Someone on the NSF forum noted that there is no Tuesday September 19th untill 2023, wich might be the launch date planned (so far). Also, i can't wait, so im listening to this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They better have some new hardware and test videos to show off. I hope so too. Can't wait to be awake at 3:00am on a school night. I wonder what is going on inside that party tent in LA. What if there is a full on spacecraft in there, and they are going to stream right next, or even INSIDE a mock-up of the spaceship?!?!?! I mean, if they are going to go orbital in 2 years, they must have done something right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceception Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Makes enough sense. Was anyone seriously expecting the full stack to launch in 2020? I do hope the hop tests are before 2020 though. But even still, I'd say they are making incredible strides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tater Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 A guy at NSF said that the tweet was from the Pacific time zone (don't even know how one checks that), so it seems pretty likely it's him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
