SpaceX is Jennifer Lawrence to space zoomies.

There is so much bullshit here I don't know where to start.

The rep is always the last to know. On purpose.

The truth is out there...

Reports of the exploding Piccolo Pete are all over the Internet, but where is Mika, are intrepid on the scene Giz reporter?

Because Mikas a sucker.

Weird how that happened seconds before the first stage exploded in glorious pyrotechnics.

UPDATE!!!

FWIW, Mika has removed more comments then she has made herself.
