Re: FW: Amateur Astronomers Photograph Tesla Roadster in Space

Marj,
Today, I was just thinking about that marvellous
accomplishment ... and he hasn’t even gotten to the Moon yet.
Then again, Elon missed the chance to put an AP-3200 and AP scope on board,
for his dummy astronaut to view Earth from near Jupiter ;-)
... next one ... Marj?
Question for Elon Musk: – Regarding the Roadster – how many “Parsecs to the
Coulomb in the battery”, does that roadster get ??? :-)
Will probably beat all mileage records by the time it
reaches the Asteroid belt.
Also, wouldn’t it be strange if some “SpaceX employee” stowed away on
the roadster, just to be the first to reach Mars?
That would probably be shushed up, because of the
competition and government/corporate funding opportunities to be “THE
first”.
Would make for an interesting “SciFi movie plot
thriller”, though.
Maybe THEY, out there, will return the old roadster some day ... with
their upgraded technology “Di-Lithium Crystal Battery” model :-)
Joe Z.

in Space Friends, I would like to issue a challenge to anyone with clear skies tonight. Who can capture an image of the Tesla Roadster in space? See the info from Space Weather below. There was an image, but I had to delete it, so you will have to go to their site.
Good luck! Snow here today, so no chance for us.
Clear Skies,
