It can still be artistic, but not in a good way.

So you're telling me that this isn't art at all, even though it very much shares aspects of art like how the two boys are painted and their shapes, lines and values.
It's like you're using the same logic as the one used to determine who's human or not solely based on their morality.

There is no context with that photo though. From my experience, I have seen certain places encourage people to leave art on walls, a prime example is a few clubs I have performed in in LA have their backstage bathrooms covered in stickers and writings from bands who have performed there before. If it is a public place that does not specifically allow graffiti, then it's vandalism, but there is no context with that photo to prove it is, and even if it is vandalism, it's done in a quite artistic way.

You guys seriously can't get it in your head that something could be artistic and vandalism at the same time?

I agree, but I don't know why you're seemingly directing this post at me if that's what you're doing, because that was kind of the point I was trying to make.
[editline]20th September 2015[/editline]
Honestly, it feels like people are only acting vandalism and art are completely exclusive because they don't want vandalism to have any kind of merit or respect, even if some of it does look just as good as other decent art that wasn't illegally sprayed on a wall.
Graffiti is vandalism, and if it's well-drawn then it can look good. If not, it looks like shit.
Does this really need to be argued?
[editline]well[/editline]
I suppose I should add that personally I think the graffiti in question (the sink one) looks terrible.

There's a chance Elon's portrait was Photoshopped into the helmet, but the design of the suit matches brief shots of it in this CG video:

I'm so used to seeing the cramped interiors of Soyuz and Apollo capsules that I forgot that all of the equipment from those can fit into such a small computer as on the Dragon
It's about damn time we Earthlings have sexy spacecraft.

I bet it's not computers that take all the space in those capsules. It's all about the fact that you need to pack everything as compact as you can to save space for more useful cargo. Actually, while that dragon capsule looks totally awesome and futuristic, i think it's kind of strange to leave so many space unused just to make astronauts feel a bit more comfortable during the flight or something, especially considering the cost of a launch.
