I get that it’s hard. But there’s no such thing as a “successful failure“. That’s a bullshit marketing term used to keep people hyped up about the project. I wouldn’t mind them cheering if they reach their main goal but I’m pretty sure their main goal wasn’t to have the rocket Blow up on both stages.
- chpatrick 3y agoOf course there is. You need to collect a certain amount of information before you get it working. If the test collects a good amount of information, it's a success, even if the rocket explodes. It would have been a failure if they didn't get any further than their last launch.
- Podgajski 3y agoIt’s not hard to collect information. And you really think they wouldn’t spin this as a success, if they didn’t get further than the last launch? The problem is, there’s a lack of humility, and no one knows what it’s like to be humble anymore.
- chpatrick 3y ago> It’s not hard to collect information. Of course it is, they had go fix all the problems with the last launch to get further, and that's already insanely difficult. They succeeded at the hot staging and almost made it to orbit altitude with the Starship. If you think that's a failure, there's no point discussing any more.
- MattRix 3y agoHave you never any science before? Any experiments or tests? Even failure can be exciting because it’s a chance to learn something new. Also in my experience the least humble people are the ones lecturing others about their lack of humility.
