Giant party balloon
Elon Musk likes people’s attention that’s why he regularly posts something on his Twitter pages. This time Musk tweeted recently that he had an idea that was “gonna sound crazy” and he was right.
SpaceX company might use a “giant party balloon” to recover the upper stage of its Falcon 9 rocket from orbit.
Of course, Elon didn’t specify how could a party balloon help SpaceX bring back a rocket that’s traveling thousands of miles per hour through space but we still waiting for this big announcement.

Troubles in paradise
Also, Nexter.org reported earlier this week, that Elon temporarily stops Model 3 production line as there are too many robots in his factory.
The company plans to pause production for the Model 3 for 4-5 days but the announcement came without warning, according to Tesla employees who spoke with BuzzFeed News.
A Tesla spokesperson said that the assembly line is on pause in order to “improve automation.”
Yes, excessive automation at Tesla was a mistake. To be precise, my mistake. Humans are underrated.
