Time doesn't slow down when you approach the speed of light and the theory we're using to describe much of the universe is based on a bad premise, that the speed of light is constant.

I don't care that I'm not as smart as einstein or that a lot of complex theories i also don't fully understand are validated by special and general relativity. I, an everyman, know better.

I'm right

SpaceX are making significant progress in rocket technology.

The perception that their rockets blow up all the time is due to their proximity to Elon Musk, the high amount of publicity their tests receive, & a healthy serving of confirmation bias.
