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.

You do realize it’s Japan right? China, Japan, Korea all have work life balance issues.i wouldn’t want to work 996 or 007 lol

Isn't that Yamaha? Or is Honda the same?

Mitsubishi too

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?

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

This is the first I have heard they were doing this. Makes spacex accomplishments less impressive. Fuck elon

I know you’re likely referring to New Shepard but Blue Origin did make it to orbit with New Glenn

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