it was always the "Right approach" and everyone knew that there was nothing in the laws of physics that prohibits this. But you are writing that as if it's still be solved. No one has ever had a fully reusable orbital rocket.

the novelty is how to handle such scale. Sure, if we build a million rockets it'll be cheaper, but how do we USE those rockets and get funding at "relative peace time". SpaceX's real innovation was starlink in allowing i

There's a video that i can't find, where they show Raptor v1, next to raptor v2. The raptor v1 has all these wires, and tubes and looks crazy, next to it, the raptor 2 looks super sleek and not that complex. They ended up molding

initially the merlin engines were $2m each, with raptor v2 coming in at under $1m, and they are pushing out 1 Raptor v3 a week now, so i'm sure they've come close to their goals. You might want to push that number up by 50% to get

SpaceX's Raptors cost about $250k each according to some leaked sources. Given there are 33 engines in the booster, you get 8,250,000 just in engine costs. I would say it's safe to assume around 30% of the cost of flight is in eng

Yeah... As an American, i don't get it. Why is the Swedish union forcing the workers at Tesla to sign an arb agreement when they get paid much more than the average union worker in the country? Does strong union actually result in bett

Yeah - and i bet you that small concession is going to be a huge loss for hydro. I'm sure elon eithier is spinning up his own cyber truck steel line or using a different supplier by the end of the year in spite.
