This 31k mile Ferrari Enzo (which supposedly went off at more than 200mph) has to be a front runner:

Most of the time the launch goes flawlessly. It’s the landing (a totally new thing that nobody has done) that they’re still working on. And to be fair, they’ve gotten really close to sticking the landing, and the last two times it failed, it was for different reasons.

So, not the actual Flash.

You know, terraforming was one aspect of that show that I completely forgot about when writing the post above. But I suppose that’s because it’s kinda implied that all of those planets (in a new stellar system) are in a Goldilocks zone of sorts.

But I suppose even if all of those planets are only Earth<->Mars distance…

Firefly seems more likely.

I suspect FTL-travel will be a dealbreaker for settling in other stellar systems (although generational ships that we never see again are a possibility, I suppose).

I agree, and yet, he laid the accent on pretty thick with Rocket. I wouldn’t say that it could not work, but I’m not saying people would not necessarily notice it’s him in both roles. That’s a lot of nots. Sorry if there’s a double negative in there. I proofread. I swear.

Oregon’s statewide speed limit of 65...which only exists on limited access freeways. rural highways are 55. Fifty. fucking. five. It’s mind numbing to drive here.

It’s from the recording of the latest episode of Top Gear. James appears to have made it out of other people’s pants.

In Sweden we don’t need warning labels for everything.
