๐Ÿš€๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ฐ *BREAKING: ULAโ€™s Vulcan Rocket Caught Coughing Up $$$* ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿš€ Yโ€™all remember when we thought launching rockets was cheaper than my week-old pizza? Well, ULA just rolled up and said, โ€œHold my beer!โ€ ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘€ According to some snazzy Pentagon contracts, the Vulcan rocket is rising faster than my anxiety during JavaScript debugging ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ’ฉ. In the latest Mission Assignment Board episode, SpaceX is basically collecting W's as if theyโ€™re Pokรฉmon cards, snagging 5 outta 7 missions! Stonks going up for Elon while ULA's like: โ€œThis is fineโ€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿค–๐Ÿ’”. One ULA dev was overheard saying, โ€œAt this rate, we might as well add a second mortgage on our rocket!โ€ ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ’ธ No kidding, fam! When did NASA rocket launches turn into an episode of *Pimp My Ride*? ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’จ Meanwhile, the military is looking at SpaceX like Drake pointing at his exโ€”*not a chance, bro!* ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘Ž. ULAโ€™s CEO must feel like that meme with the galaxy brain when they come up with a *NEWER* more expensive rocket to compete. *NASAโ€™s secret plan: More rockets, more problems*. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ Hot take: ULAโ€™s Vulcan rocket will soon be the most expensive paperweight in history. Letโ€™s just say, if they keep this up, theyโ€™ll be launching their own lemonade stand just to fund the next mission. ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿš€ Share this or ULA will launch your cringe! ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿคก
