Do you really want a fuel plant next to a launch site?
- zlynx 6y agoWhy not? The fuel is next to the launch site, before they put it into the rocket. It can be protected from exploding rockets by berms, concrete, etc. It isn't as if an exploding rocket is a shaped charge; the force of an explosion would go up and out and be easily deflected.
