Not necessarily. Larger payloads (and maybe some trajectories) forego the reusability of the rocket (even Falcon Heavy)

- arcticfox 5y agoGood point, but it's one major reason why SpaceX makes the news (also Crew Dragon) and Arianespace doesn't, even if it doesn't apply in every instance. If SpaceX was simply doing the same thing as everyone else has for 60 yrs, no one would care, I don't understand why people think they're the same thing
- wolverine876 5y agoYou don't think it has something to do with Elon Musk's self-promotion and large cult? Quick, who is the CEO of Arianespace? Who is heading up the SLS project?
- avmich 5y agoSomebody who'd lose if they try to get too much of a limelight? As both those organizations depend on governments way more than SpaceX.
