This is great and all but it's going to take some time for people to gain confidence that this can be done safely, particularly for manned flights. Would you want to fly on a rocket that was doing it's 4th trip of the day and only had a few hours between launches? What kind of safety checks are there? I'm not suggesting it's not done properly or safely, but it's going to take many, many rapid flights with zero mishaps before people start to trust this thing.Continues…
“Achieving materially positive payload margin to a useful orbit with a fully & rapidly reusable rocket has eluded prior attempts. Many have tried to embark upon this path only to give up when it became clear that their design would have negative or negligible payload margin.
This is an extremely difficult problem to solve, given the strong gravity of Earth, whereas it is easy on Mars and trivial on the Moon. In the early years of SpaceX, I was not sure that success was even in the set of possible outcomes!
Fortunately, it just barely is, but requires doing unusual things like shifting the mass needed for final velocity attenuation and post-landing stabilization of the rocket (so it doesn’t tip over in wind) to the ground, rather than carrying heavy landing gear on both stages.”
Beaten to low earth orbit by bezos on his first try. Sad.
Whose ship is in orbit and whose is scattered across the ocean?You really are one dumb mother****er.

Starship has not. I don't need Grok to tell me that.Hey retard. Run a damn Grok search before you spout off.
“SpaceX rockets have collectively made it to orbit well over 400 times.”
Notice it’s Grok instead of a simple Google search like 99% of the population and he’s now adopted Musk’s new habit of calling people retards.Starship has not. I don't need Grok to tell me that.
Bezo's ship did while starship became confetti. Again.
Don't you just love the difference between the PR focused coverage these days vs the sober, fact-laden coverage back when NASA was running things?
I was wondering about that, too. Those pieces aren't burning up before they hit ground. I imagine they were over water, but still. This would not be a good headlineWhen do one of these billionaires lose all their fortune by a massive f up? That debris could have taken out multiple airliners
What a joke, Americans really believe this happened? that’s pure CGI
Friggin awesomeWhat a joke, Americans really believe this happened? that’s pure CGI

250 ton objects in free fall come to a sudden stop with just a little shot of rocket fuel?
Cool !
Great!
Incredible!
“Always be thrusting.” - Elon Musk in my dreams when he’s behind me. (NTTAWWT - I don’t kink shame.)
😂
Projection.
Not as effective as you think that is bruv. We all see you. What a loser.

Keep trying simp. I love carving out a space in your 100% Musky brain to live.
Well bye.
Ok. And you probably believed your leaders when they said Biden was sharp as a tack too.Lol. Are you serious? There are hundreds of people watching and recording this event.

Everyone has to learn they can’t always trust the government and propaganda like this.

I would like to see and we want to see them succeed as this is our manned space program now. I think Musk jumped the gun on capturing the boosters and even needing to reuse the boosters as we just dont have that many space flights compared to airliners.Not as effective as you think that is bruv. We all see you. What a loser.
Does it surprise anyone that an Elon disciple can’t spot an obvious troll/troll job?
What does this video have to do with me? I’m not the one trolling you. Are you truly this clueless? Rhetorical, of course.
