Really interesting documentary, and a cool technology. One thing buried away at the end really surprised me, which is that even if they get it working it'll be more expensive per kg than a falcon 9 heavy. Wow.
- JoeAltmaier 4y agoPerhaps it'll have a niche - launch any time you want?
- fancyfredbot 4y agoYes that's exactly what they say in the video. Apparently the cost of smaller launch vehicles with flexible launch schedules is much higher. It's still amazing how efficient the falcon 9 is though!
