The people who worked on this amazing effort are not allowed to cheer and be happy? What about spectators that gather like these employees to watch a launch from a distance? What about the ones who showed up for the space shuttle?
If you have followed SpaceX over the last 10-15 years, you’ll know that this is normal and is what makes the broadcasts fun to watch. The footage is high quality, with transparent telemetry, and multiple live views - unlike anything before or since. And the sheer joy of those employees is infectious.
What Musk, Shotwell, and the SpaceX team have achieved is truly astonishing and a massive win for humanity. I own no Tesla stock or cars, don’t use Starlink, and don’t use Twitter. But twisting this into something negative like this just does not make any sense to me. If anything, this comment shows the cult of (likely ideological) hatred towards Musk is more dangerous and unsettling than the alleged cult of personality around Musk.
