Elon's train.

Post by tassiehammer »

Just saw my 3rd satellite train from Elon Musk. He's putting a fair amount of hardware/space junk up with the stars. I suppose the sky at night is shit around the London area but still pretty clear out in the sticks.
Just like my dreams they fade and die.
But on the positive side..............

You’re right about the night sky in and around London. Way too much light pollution. Best place I ever see the night sky was Lake Tekapo NZ

Excellent, you’ll love it. And if you find yourself heading south to Queenstown and you want a bit of an adrenaline rush, you absolutely MUST have a go on the shotover jet 😃

Not sure yet how far south we go. But it looks like all the adrenaline trips are out the window and I'm not a Russian :D . Blood pressure meds, check. Heart problems, check. Too old, check. See how we go. :D
And probably mental health. "What football team do you follow?" "West.... :D :D
