  4. LMAO… North Korea can send you some rockets…

  5. And leave it to NBC to make sure China knows this

  6. What…..Where's the fireworks? Come on!

  7. Back to the drawing board, Epsilon! "…tasked with Earth observation…for disaster response and map-making…" SURE, it is! I'd get my missiles online, too!

  8. MADE IN JAPAN when I was a kid was JUNK

  9. It's not failed by structure but failed by the external pressure. The earth is weirder than its normally weird.

  10. For the first time since 1946, when the US crafted Constitution was presented to Japan, article 9 has been amended to allow preemptive strikes.

  11. This happen before right

  12. 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

  13. 2nd Amendment: The Right of The People to keep and bear Arms, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

  14. Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

  15. One thing Japan has is more MBAs than MSc.

  16. 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

  17. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

    Meaning layoff the cheeseburgers ya fools

  18. Fate whispers to the warrior, ‘You cannot withstand the storm.’ The warrior whispers back, ‘I am the storm.

  19. We can't spend 12 million to feed our children at school but we can spend 100 billion for Nazi Ukraine

  20. 2nd Amendment: The Right of The People to keep and bear Arms, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

  21. 👍👍👍.I've been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it's the best time to get started on the market. i was at a seminar and the host spoke about making over $972,000 within 3 Months with a capital of $200,000

  22. Silly Japanese space flight is for Americans 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
    Stick to making reliable cars not rockets

  23. Ahh… that sucks for JAXA.
