Imagine what these engineers could achieve without shareholders and adult trust fund babies fucking them up.
I guarantee you they would have achieved this decades ago if it were the Soviet Union.
They got a man in space in the 50s ffs
100%. Reusable rockets in this fashion were even envisioned and designed by NASA many decades ago, they just never had the funding to do it.
Mmm that makes sense. Too busy funding imperialism to spare some for space research.
Incredibly neat, in a just world the people who actually achieved this would be as well known as Musk is.
Watch take all the credit for this and take a massive dump on the real brains of the outfit, the engineers and planners.
Neat
Very
I just can’t enjoy this. I recognise it’s a technological feat, but giving an ounce of positive praise to these first steps to privatized solar-system destroying shit just hurts. Society would be better off if it had exploded.
