Roadster in outer space
 

I see the Tesla roadster that Elon Musk blasted off into outer space seven years ago has showed up again. I wonder if there is a 34 three window floating around out there that I could snag with a tractor beam! It would be rust free!

It may have some "hail" damage from meteors though

Apparently Mr Musk wasn't the first one to send an automobile into space. In this clip they have already drawn the '37 ford pickup into the cargo bay with their tractor beam and are analyzing what they found.

Not to be pedantic, but isn't that a '36? It has pumps in the heads and the BIG V8 emblem on the hood.

I stand corrected. '36 grille, Denny's water pumps and one piece windshield. 1936. As for the tesla car, I'm gonna look it up. So it's an actual real thing out there?

Definitely a real thing. The roadster was launched Feb 6, 2018, aboard SpaceX Falcon Heavy Rocket.
