More than necessary

One more space odyssey snags our attention by way of bad grammar – mirror.co.uk lapsed into a lazy mistake we thought only Americans were likely to make in this chronicle of Elon Musk’s Tesla Roadster-cruising Starman hitting an orbital milestone. Check out the last paragraph’s “more then.”

Less than stellar for such a widely read arm of the media. Your writers or editors not managing to keep to the basics of the language? Don’t put up with any more, then. It’s not rocket science.
