Are the tires really rubber? What kind of temps is Starman and the car experiencing? I guess I thought space was more inhospitable than that. It is geeky-cool, but I'd have added some CubeSats to the payload to be deployed at opportune times during the trip.

Am I the only one thinking that this is just Elon’s very clever way of disposing of a dead body?

Speaking of ESA, 82nd succesful launch of Ariane V in a row. 83rd, not so much.

It's probably packed with Elon's DNA...
It would have been really apropos if David Bowie had made prior arrangement to be stuffed into the spacesuit.
Then again, maybe he did. 
Rumor started!
