i just fundamentally disagree that without profit motive, we won't explore or inhabit the extraterrestrial. but now we wade into one the oldest forum arguments about space. an absolute classic

redshirt posted:Everything looks great so far yep. starship in orbit now. cool poo poo. hope they got video of the booster blowing up, looks like it ran out of fuel or all the engines didnt turn on or something? in any case huge improvement, and it looks like they didnt utterly devastate the launch pad this time too lmao

looks like starship probably broke up on re-entry. looked like it was tumbling a bit at the start. that camera shot of the plasma tho - goddamn. what a time to be alive

Scam Likely posted:So Superheavy booster failed at landing burn relight, and Starship failed due to loss of attitude control before re-entry. not sure if that was the cause/timing of the booster failure, i think some of the engines may have lit? but yeah seems starship had an attitude problem. im not sure, but during the stream it also seemed like it was venting something in space? not sure if it was leaking or what
