In 2018, SpaceX launched the powerful Falcon Heavy rocket on its first test flight—and instead of using a boring payload, they sent Elon Musk’s 2010 Tesla Roadster into space! 🌌 Sitting in the driver’s seat was Starman, a dummy astronaut, with David Bowie’s « Space Oddity » playing on loop.

Now, the car is drifting through space in a highly elliptical orbit around the Sun, sometimes traveling beyond Mars. Scientists estimate there’s a 6% chance it could crash into Earth—but not anytime soon. It may wander the cosmos for millions of years!
