Elon Musk called the Antares rocket a 'joke' 2 years before it exploded

Way to go Dear Leader

Yes, but Elon Musk is one of the people that Obama hates more than Putin and Netanyahu.

Thread: Wow! Amazing info about SpaceX's failed launch today!
This morning, CR-7 ISS resupply mission tragically exploded 2 minutes into flight. Prior to this, SpaceX had not lost a Falcon 9 rocket (18/18).

About 1 month ago, SpaceX was granted permission to launch Department of Defense (DoD) payloads. For the past 10 years, only ULA (joint venture between Lockheed Martin and Boeing) have been allowed to launch for DoD, and have been charging $200-$500 Million each flight. SpaceX has stated they will do it for $90 million, and would be able to win every open bid again them.

ULA fought against this as hard as they could, paying some very powerful congressmen against this. ULA's only argument, and hope to continue their monopoly and win bids was to make a case that SpaceX was not safe enough. The only problem is that the Falcon 9 has the best track record yet.

I believe ULA directly caused todays Falcon 9 rocket failure. I believe they did this using Lockheed Martin's new anti-rocket laser.

Here is a demonstration video of Lockheed Martin's (ULA's) new anti-rocket laser: [link to www.youtube.com (secure)]

The Lockheed Martin Area Defense Anti-munitions (ADAM) prototype laser weapon system successfully destroys a Qassam-like rocket target in an operationally representative free-flyer scenario at a range of 1.5 kilometers on April 22, 2013, replicating similar demonstrations conducted starting in March 2013. For more information, go to: www.lockheedmartin.com/adam

If you watch the Falcon 9 rocket at the moments before it is destroyed, you will see smoke/vapor coming out of the 2nd stage. Compare this to the demonstration video of the laser. They look remarkably similar.

Yeah, sure
You believe people like Musk can exist without approval of TPTB? Suuure...

He became a victim of vicious competition in this field.
