Elon Musk / Space Oddity
I love that Elon Musk launched a Tesla Roadster blasting “Space Oddity” into a billion year elliptical orbit of Mars...and that he's "tripping balls" about it.
I keep it all together for the sake of the kids.

If you have not seen the video of the Falcon launch, drop everything and watch it now. One of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Aside from the incredible science behind the launch, it is just so badass to see a Red Convertible blasting David Bowie launched to Mars. Because: science! Also because: awesome!
I mean, Elon Musk sent his car to Mars. I remember jumping off the roof with a sheet in an attempt to parachute, when questioned, "WHY would you do something like that?", I answered, "I wanted to see what would happen."
Just look at the Live Stream of the car in space. I can't stop watching.
One day the aliens will find this and say to each other: "Do you think they are dangerous?", "I don't know man, but they are fucking COOL."
