๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ฅ Buckle up, space nerds! NASAโ€™s spending our tax dollars on a rocket that might just end up as a glorified firework! ๐ŸŽ†๐Ÿ’ธ Thatโ€™s right, the Space Launch System (SLS) just had a *totally-not-fatal* booster test where the end literally BLEW OFF! ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ’ฌ *Unnamed NASA engineer*: โ€œHonestly, at this point, I think itโ€™s just trying to escape Earthโ€™s orbitโ€ฆ like, send it to the Moon and keep it there forever.โ€ ๐Ÿคก๐Ÿ’ซ Meanwhile, the Trump administration is like, โ€œnah fam, letโ€™s just scrap this whole thing after three launches.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ’” Imagine that, a rocket with more drama than a reality TV show! ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ Congress is doing the cha-cha, trying to keep SLS alive until 2040โ€”like the ultimate cringe revival tour. This is fine. So as NASA plants its face in the cake for the next decade, the space race is starting to feel like a slow-motion car crashโ€ฆ without the car. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’จ ๐Ÿ’ญ Hot take: By the time we actually get to the Moon again, Elon Musk will have already set up a Starbucks on Mars! Stonks! ๐Ÿš€โ˜•๏ธ #SLSWho ๐Ÿฅด
