“Rapid unscheduled disassembly “ is a perfect metaphor for Musk and Twiit-ter.This thing has 33 engines. What could possibly go wrong?
"We learned a lot..."-Elon Musk.
And we are going to be replaced by delivery drones?
LOL
K.SpaceX went from putting a single rocket in space to being able to make multiple launches in one day, recovering the rockets for reuse, and ferrying astronauts to the ISS and back with almost complete success in only 15 years. I wouldn't count out their engineers because their very first attempt with a new rocket didn't make it all the way to space.
K.
Would you fly on that rocket...........?
The answer is very likely heck no......even if they paid you.
It's not even intended for travel/transportation at this point. It was meant to clear the tower. #Success.K.

Traveling not to mention even living in a pressurized environment.....like flying fighter jets is relatively super risky. Being an astronaut(test pilot really) is astronomically(pun intended) more so.
It is intended for travel/transportation. Their expectations far higher. #massive failure.It's not even intended for travel/transportation at this point. It was meant to clear the tower. #Success.
You can get a freaking balloon nearly if so into "space". William Shatner bs stuff.Why would anyone fly on Starship right now? Human-crewed missions have been flying to the ISS on a different SpaceX platform for 3 years now. Starship is still experimental.
So are cars and they crash them all the time in testing, and that's before they do the actual purposeful demolition to determine their safety ratings. Test, test, test until they're safe enough to take people.It is intended for travel/transportation. Their expectations far higher. #massive failure.

And SpaceX....Russians did on slide rule technology. Heck Chinese probably bundled chop sticks. Like we learned to count in 2nd grade.....
