Previously, I’d only seen the first two panels and assumed it was the complete comic.

This version is much better.

Fixing a bug during the deploy

SpaceX completes first-ever rocket landing following launch. For the first time in history, an orbital rocket successfully landed back on Earth following the completion of its primary objective.

The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched 11 satellites for Orbcomm at 8:30 pm EST. Eleven minutes later, at 8:41, the first stage of the rocket landed at Landing Zone-1, seven kilometers south of where it started from, SLC-40.

Following its landing, SpaceX technicians will safe the rocket and lower it to a horizontal position. From there, it will be sent to a facility for further safing and inspection. Sometime in 2016, the stage will be sued for fit checks at the company’s newly-acquired and renovated LC-39A at Kennedy Space Center.

Asking “[w]ho really rules?” researchers Martin Gilens and Benjamin I. Page argue that over the past few decades America’s political system has slowly transformed from a democracy into an oligarchy, where wealthy elites wield most power.

Hahaha!!
