I don't know who you are siding with there Farbin, because I know the song Bowie did is called Space Oddity not Major Tom. Major Tom is a different song, just about the same character.

Bowie would later revisit his Major Tom character in the songs "Ashes to Ashes" and "Hallo Spaceboy".
That is the character, there is no song titled Major Tom from that era or Bowie.
Peter Shilling and Shiny Toy Guns have a song by that title however. In 1983.And 2009 respectively.Comment

The Peter Schilling "Major Tom" is the one I am referring to, which Shiny Toy Guns did a recent version of, which is why I made the point that Bowie has not hahaha."We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time"-Colin McCrae

Rofl, what did you prove me wrong with?Originally posted by Farbin Kaiber View Post
Edit: NVM there is no point to argue this, my point is, the song is not Major Tom, it is Space Oddity, I hear the mistake a lot. Major Tom=different song."We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time"-Colin McCrae

Didn't think the Falcon 9 would be successful this quick, but I guess they got all of the kinks out with Falcon 1. It is mentioned as a possible contracted replacement of the Shuttle as far as ISS duty until a NASA spacecraft takes over, when combined with the Dragon.
FYI I am a huge fan of Elon Musk, Tesla, and Space-X."We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time"-Colin McCrae
