First car in space!

Last night, Tesla Roadster went into orbit and became the fastest car in the universe:

If it was pulled over by space-police, they would have charged Elon a speeding ticket of exceeding 40'555 km per hour!

The surrealism of the situation is truly mind-blowing:

Highly amusing is the phrase “DO NOT PANIC” on the car’s dashboard, taken from the excellent book series “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”:

Elon even shoved a copy of the book and a towel into the glove box so that the space-suited manequin would have something fun to read on his infinite journeys!

Inside the car, there’s a sign “made on earth by humans”, in case aliens ever catch it adrift in space and take it apart for clues:

The car was supposed to fly towards Mars orbit, but they’ve overshot it so now it’s heading into the Asteroid Belt orbit:

Especially interesting is the fact that we’re witnessing sci-fi of 1979 come to Life. In the Heavy Metal movie, Soft Landing segment, which Elon must have seen when he was 11 years old there’s this scene:

Same scene, but in the Heavy metal magazine:

What a magical time to be alive!
