a rocket explodes and suddenly everyone turns on the golden boy.
- SubiculumCode 10y agoin other words, journalists just making noise.
- coldtea 10y agoYeah, because a rocket exploding is not important when you run a rocket company... I mean, couldn't they focus on all those rockets that did not explode?
- SubiculumCode 10y agoNo. It is not that rocket exploding is not a set back. Of course it is. BUT, it is not a set back of the magnitude the press wants it be. This is inherent to the rocket business, especially when those rockets are new technology.
- enneff 10y agoAre you being sarcastic? Because one of the failure modes of a rocket is to explode. It is unfortunate, but not unexpected. It's basically unavoidable for any rocket manufacturer, and certainly not a cause to condemn SpaceX.
