At least the damn thing finally launched. As successful as SpaceX has been, I don't like the idea of having all our eggs in Elon's basket.

It's only 200 meters, they can get out and walk, right?

Success!   The world needs to spend more money and time on this, and less on other things.

Besides the thruster problem, which they say could be in the computer program, they are low on water. If you think you have a computer program problem, maybe you could have fixed it since the last launch? Boeing should have computers and doors down pat after all these years....
