Its so interesting to watch this technology evolve, life and uncut. Its almost as if every other day another milestone is revealed. Especially as its a tech that one doesn't work with (mechanical engineering / rocket motor engineering etc).
Looking forward for all the great space missions that will be made possible by this (europa, enceladus, more comet missions & many more space-telescopes), not so much for humanity becoming multi-planetary, as the scientific value is lower imo. E.g. a great project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQFqDKRAROI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQFqDKRAROI
- IanClarke 5y agoThey work 24/7. 12 hour shifts "day" and "night" with 3 and 4 days off each other week. They also distribute the work properly in parallel and have the perfect visionary (Elon) and capable leadership / lead engineers, fixing on mistakes and iterating. Probably it's forbidden to work like that in a lot of other developed countries, which basically only allow for 8 hours of work Monday to Friday. And also lack the proper leadership.
- ehmish 5y agoI think it's pretty normal in most developed countries to have operations happening 24/7, in some there's rules requring extra pay for saturdays and sundays, and a lot have weekly per-worker limits on the number of hours worked and/or numbers of hours where extra pay is required, but it's certainly not impossible.
