    Local farmer finds SpaceX debris on his land.

    I'm surprised it's not from China. All their large rockets have an uncontrolled reentry since they really don't give a **** where it lands. Even short First stages have fallen back on their own cities.

    Change in start up

    If you need a battery, go to Walmart, as they are less than half of what the parts places charge. ~$100 vs $200+

    What are y'all paying for a haircut these days?

    Been using a 30 year old Wahl my mom bought back in the 90s you plug directly in the wall until I splurged and got a cordless in the end of 2020 so I could safely trim everything in the shower and not have to clean the counter and floor off of all my hair. The Wahl is still used when the...

    A 737-8 NG slick (minus the gear) is going to be coming in at up to ~60-70+ knots faster than flaps 40 (48*). So ~180mph+ especially at Denver's altitude, vs ~120mph. At least they had enough runway to work with to get her stopped.

    The cowling was loose, they had full spoilers on as the flaps are definitely not "down 40" in landing configuration. IIRC the pilots were hesitant to use the flaps as one took a hit on takeoff as the initial piece of cowling ripped off and they didn't want to try and extend the flaps or slats...
