so, what your saying is that you admit SpaceX is a world class provider of launch services, but you don't like it cause it's not THAT much better than everything else?
- tsimionescu 2y agoI'm saying that SpaceX is a world-class provider of space launch services, and leads the market on virtually any metric, but they aren't, as some are claiming in this thread, orders(!) of magnitude cheaper than others in the business. I'm just trying to counter balance some of the narrative here that presents SpaceX like some savior almost sent from the future.
- TrapLord_Rhodo 2y agoAlthough starship is not "proven", you can say that the architecture is one that atleast theoretically works. And they have the data, and it is an order of magnitude cheaper as my previous comments have said. This next year they have the hardware and permission for 25 launches. So within the end of this year your comment will no longer be valid.
- me_me_me 2y agoI heard the next year there will be 100 launches and they all will be self driving too. And you will be able to buy one and rent it out for 100x return on investment.
