This is the first I have heard they were doing this. Makes spacex accomplishments less impressive. Fuck elon
To be fair, they must've learned from the recent spacex accomplishments.

It seems crazy that a company that's only really known for cars, motorbikes, tuning forks, heat pumps, brake pads, pens, tractors, fertilizer, display panels, outboard motors, pneumatic systems, oil tankers, furniture, locomotives, bricks, solar panels, ATVs, generators, hot air balloons, dinghies, hydrogen fuel cells, submarines, crop dusters, jet engines, cultivators, hedge trimmers, lawnmowers, precision optics and robots would suddenly pivot to rockets.

“But look what I can do, I’m Elon musk” …. Throws out a nazi salute.

It's almost like they're an engineering company.

And Hyundai is making hydrogen powered tanks, what a world. I wonder if hydrogen fuels poses any unique risks as compared to petrol.

Explosion wise or climate wise?

I guess both? I know climate wise the manufacture of those things cannot be climate friendly.

Also, if you look at the pictures, it's not a very big rocket.
Hey, hey, it's average.

Up and down isn't a hard problem in the grand scheme of things. It's expensive and doesn't offer much benefit which is why people generally haven't bothered.
Going up and over at orbital velocities and coming back is the hard part, and none of these new spaces companies have done that successfully yet, and SpaceX has now done it with 2 vehicles and reused them both.
New Glenn from Blue Orgin might be the first after SpaceX but it blew up coming back on their first attempt, but it's been designed to be orbital and reusable

Don't forget, one the sleekest airplanes to ever exist.
