Definitely not true.

If budget is unlimited, perhaps. In real life, not so much.
- redis_mlc 6y agoYou and rumanator don't know what you're talking about and you seem puritanical to boot. If a rocket never fails, it means it's too heavy (overdesigned.) That's why Musk is ok with failures early on - he wants that data. So whether a destructive test is intentional or not, it does provide data for the next iteration. It's irrelevant if somebody "plans" or "hopes" for a new rocket to work tomorrow. It either works, or doesn't.
