Man, I have my opinions on Spinlaunch, too, but I find thunderf*t’s videos (especially the BUSTED ones) unenlightening & unhelpful to rationally discussing the pros and cons of some technology.
Scott Manley’s video (if video is the format you prefer) on Spinlaunch was much better. Scott Manley also has a much better understanding of rockets and space technology than thunderf*t.

- GuB-42 5y agoThunderf00t can show great science at times, but most of his channel is just opinion pieces disguised as science. Most of his arguments are sound, which is not very difficult considering some of the things he attacks, but some are more debatable, or even just wrong. And he never back down, and he has a community of mindless followers which is more fitting to a cult leader than to a man of science.
