Now, it says that Stephen Hawking dies and went to Heaven. And God, after a bit of thinking, says: You will not need to stay here in the heaven with us. Due to your exemplary life and results, blah blah, we grant you the ability to fly through the Universe, visit any place, go into the black holes, etc., and enjoy the miracle of nature", blah blah... (some native English speaker can put this in better words).

Stephen left happily, but then he is back after few minutes... Saint Peter at the gates of the heaven asked him "What's wrong, you just left, bored already?"

Stephen angry: "No, I was flying among the stars and I was so happy... Then an idiot with a red Tesla hit me"...

From stardust he was made,
He needed medical aid,
He had a computer voice,
But did not have a choice,
For a great mind he possessed,
With long life he was not blessed,
And to stardust he will return.

He arrived as most do.

He did extraordinary things while seriously challenged.

He departed leaving a legacy.

There, people wouldn't know where the red Tesla is coming from :razz:
(that is why I posted here, actually I didn't expect any continuation by other posters, and of course, all posts can be moved, I have no problem with it)

No problem here.

The telemetry graphics were pretty cool, I wish SpaceX had stuff like that. I was equally pleased to see velocity in m/s rather than kph, as well :smile:
