If my memory serves, there were at least a couple of blurred/pixellated details in that.
What I also noticed is a change in Musk from early Everyday Astronaut interviews, where rather than tackling the mention of competing technologies or methodologies witha reasoned argument as to why they weren't going that route, he'd clamp up and a few minutes later respond clearly slighted by the proposition.
Musk has always been a bit of a hard listen, but I found this last EA interview really hard to get through.
- golol 2y agoI think Musk just wanted to make the point that there are many ways to achieve rapid and reliable reusability but they have chosen this one, they are laser focused on making it work, and they know they can make it work. So other ways of doing things are actually not important to him right now.
- modeless 2y agoThe blurring is for ITAR compliance. It's not SpaceX policy, it's government policy. My impression from the latest interview was that Elon has not been as directly involved in SpaceX technical decisions since buying Twitter and spending a bunch of time on that instead. So he was less able to engage on technical questions.
