Ship 42 has a name!

DON’T PANIC ♥️

From the book The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams and the words on the cover of the Guide itself.

42 is the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

“Don’t Panic” was also on the dashboard of Elon’s Tesla Roadster when it launched into space in 2018 -along with a copy of the book and a towel in the glovebox (I never travel without these).

Full circle ♥️ It’s the perfect name for the first ship going for the tower catch ♥️

Written in our history & future ♡

Ship 42 “DON’T PANIC” spent 22 hours in space, circled Earth 14 times, and became the first Starship ever caught by a tower coming home from orbit.

Baby, it came back 🖤

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
