It took SpaceX 6 years from conception to its first successful launch, then another couple of years to start regular launches of the falcon platform. Now, I pretty much can watch Spacex rockets launch pretty much every week from my backyard.
Your argument that a for profit company would only do this for PR is odd. SpaceX doesn’t need to spend this capital for PR. What PR does the company actually need? Right now they are then only western space platform capable of reliably delivering passengers and supplies to and from the ISS.
- kranke155 3y agoRight now what’s being shared is little more than a conspiracy theory “SpaceX is building Super Heavy for PR” has as much credence as UFO kidnappings. OP wants it to be that way so it must be that way. That’s the only way I can read this insistence and the lack of evidence pointing towards it. If OP was saying “Starship is being build to carry the Roswell alien bodies back to the dark side of the moon” the amount of evidence indicating this would be similar, but no one would take OP seriously
