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

How many went kaboom before this?

any sources?

Here is an article about the tank, it appears to still be in the proof of concept stage. As for my conjecture that it would likely have a high carbon impact during production that was based mostly on similar studies ~2~ done on the production of cars.

I wonder if hydrogen fuels poses any unique risks as compared to petrol.
It's highly explosive.

I imagine they poached a lot of Spacex engineers by simply telling them “we won’t make you work ungodly hours, nor will we subject you to a narcissistic manchild with no engineering education dropping in on your meetings and trying to tell you how to do your job”

An alternative to starlink would be great.

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
schrieb am 19. Juni 2025, 00:44 zuletzt editiert vonAs much as it's true, not all company are doing this.
There are plenty of good East Asian company with good work life balance, especially newer company that already recognize the issue. -
This is the first I have heard they were doing this. Makes spacex accomplishments less impressive. Fuck elon
schrieb am 19. Juni 2025, 00:52 zuletzt editiert vonwell Honda did this a decade later so there still is some achievement spacex has done

To be fair, they must've learned from the recent spacex accomplishments.

no one in the private sector was gonna take that kind of risk for a while and then SpaceX took the gamble, won and now tons of players see vertical landing of rockets works so their all looking into it.

Of all the manufacturing companies, I would expect nothing less from Honda.

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

The all new Honda space Odyssey! It has a great V6 rocket engine with a 6000 million mile timing belt. After that you can buy one at amazon but it lasts 4 miles or 6 minutes.

I guess both? I know climate wise the manufacture of those things cannot be climate friendly.
schrieb am 19. Juni 2025, 01:47 zuletzt editiert vonAt the end of the day, making EV cars isn't either unfortunately...but in the grand scheme of things. Both hydrogen and EV cars are more environmentally friendly than gas powered cars.

This is a first step landing test, not even suborbital, it flew to a height of 300 meters. This is the point that SpaceX was at in 2011 with their grasshopper rocket.
SpaceX is regularly landing orbital hardware and working on a fully reusable rocket with a greater lifting capacity than anything else ever. It's not really the same...
But fuck Elon, no argument there.
