repeating the same thing does not make your point stronger

This is actually a triumph for Musk. SpaceX has figured out how to blow up their rockets without all the cost and time required to prepare for a launch.

I hate to be this guy, but this is just... not true. That's not how this works at all. How is the government giving SpaceX money outside of a contract? They aren't.

Everyone wants to find a reason to hate SpaceX because Musk, but the truth is SpaceX is a well-ran innovative company.

This is not evidence to the contrary, especially when the company is intentionally trying to find the limits on a development article.

Falcon 9 (the only rocket they actually sell launches on) is one of the most reliable launch vehicles in the world.

I mean you’re right in a sense, but usually when I iterate on a design it gets better not worse.

I think it's not fair to say that iteration doesn't ever include any steps back. Development isn't always straightforward and it doesn't always go perfectly.

Then don't be. I'm not sure why you feel the need to glaze the world's richest political agent, unless...

Are you a SpaceX employee? You've said this in the past.

Most people at SpaceX genuinely love the mission and will work longer hours because it's almost a passion.

We're pretty well-compensated too.

SpaceX ≠ Elon Musk

Nice. Now they know how to not build that specific one

Trial and error correction people

The best thing is that these launchs are getting cheaper with time

The falcon 9 has an internal launch cost per kilogram of about 1000 USD/KG

If they get starship right (and all evidence points to it getting ready soon) internal launch cost is estimated to be between 200 to 300 USD/KG

We are very close to seeing 25k USD or less tickets to space

Get ready for the future bois, it won't wait for you
