Gezz so much vitriol. > Freeze frame photos show what appears to be a lightweight hollowed out car shell prop, likely using magnets, suction, and compressed gas to help the country's richest nazi once again lie to the gullible American public and boost the valuation of a car company that stopped being innovative more than a decade ago. It's obviously a stunt. But IMO it's a real stunt probably developed by the controls engineers at SpaceX to show off some pretty crazy control capabilities. This is NASA SkyCrane on steroids.
