China probably should build a few launch pads on the coast to reduce the risk, but they never will from the political climate.

The footage of the orange plume that emerged on social media was so shocking that the country’s government banned local residents from continuing to record the recovery process

Looks like the 50-cent army has chimed in! The fact is that this has been happening for years. Toxic rocket parts falling out of the sky has been happening repeatedly with their program and that they fall into populated areas all the time isn’t excusable.

Probably the least toxic material on the ground around there.

That sucks and all, but Toxic Rocket Drop sounds like a really sick skate trick.

A couple of years ago I traded time and distance away for safety. My route now adds about two kilometers to my ride but it’s far safer.

I’m not going to watch the video. I’ve been these cyclists and I don’t need to relive my experience.

Fuck that, if you are driving drunk and hit people it is attempted murder.

Hell, sometimes my brother Cletus says he actually drives faster than his headlights when he’s had a few.”

The University of Alabama says traveling near light speed is possible?

“At close to the speed of light”
