"None of the tech is really new"? Lol? Could you tell me about the old re-usable rockets from before?

• stuartloxton 9y ago
  This isn't an agreement with the parents comment about Tesla but re-usable rockets weren't invented by SpaceX. The idea existed for a while and various projects got to different stages. Including a functional 'McDonnell_Douglas_DC-X'. The project got taken over by NASA and the budget cut before being axed. You really do sound a bit too fanatical and should probably question more instead of accepting companies as entirely revolutionary.

    "The idea existed for awhile" Yep, SpaceX has barely innovated at all. Their contributions to space flight are not really of note.

    To be clear, the DC-X was not capable of reaching orbital velocity.
