>I'm not talking bans, but generalized unraveling of society tends to hurt space travel among other things
It won't affect a private company who would go under if they don't get payloads into space. It won't affect a military industrial complex who wants new toys. It won't affect the large number of spaceflight fans who just want to see spaceships. I understand that you and others are worried about Biden being Obama 2.0 with spaceflight, but what made Obama's changes so bad for spaceflight was because everything was being betted on NASA. Now there is a company that is taking matters into its own hands and making actual functioning stuff, and stuff weighs more than ideologies

Your mom likes it like that. Sorry, can't say no to her dump truck ass

Falcon 9 glides somewhat during re-entry therefore it's a space plane

Re-used vs. new

I'm so happy we have SpaceX so we don't need to pander to v*ters. The world will be dragged into the space age, kicking and screaming if needed.

Probably with silence at first, then later using something that went bad (or apparently bad like pic rel) as "proof" that SpaceX isn't good enough.

>I don’t understand, is it “cool” to hate Elon Musk now?
It's always been somewhat trendy to hate on Musk mainly due to him being very outspoken and tending to over-promise on his products.

Also, I'm struggling to find the video where thunderf00t takes this image as "proof" that SpaceX is encountering significant challenges in reusing rockets. His videos aren't very well structured nor labeled.

>so I don't know what this fag is on about
It's common thought to think that cheap means less reliable, but he's probably just looking for any reason to throw some shade on SpaceX.

this one's on the way back down lol
