  If your scientific discovery disproportionately benefit a few billionaires then it’s worse than worthless.

    AND makes life far worse for literally the entire planet.

    Imagine unilaterally deciding that increasing your already obscene fortune is more important than every living creature that will ever exist in the future having a sky to enjoy, ever again. To these people, human joy is not something worth preserving.

      To these people, human joy is an indulgence for the weak.

      You know how over-exaggerated cartoonish villains will talk about how love and caring make you weak? Basically that.

        That’s because he’s an ogre who has to pay women to be artificially inseminated because, they won’t go anywhere near him, and his weener won’t work anyhow, due to botched enlargement surgery.

        Just repellant.

    Not like these ones. I’m almost tired of having this discussion y’all are blinded by hatred.

    First full flow staged combustion engine, dramatically lower launch prices than competitors (cheaper for the government and has enabled more interesting things to go to space), dramatically more access (SpaceX flies multiple times a week!), booster recovery & rocket reuse.

    And again I know everyone really is blinded by their seething rage but starship is going to change the whole landscape again.

    You can hate the man as much as you want, I’m not saying I don’t. But you discredit yourself by not knowing what SpaceX is actually doing.

    I mean, we still wouldn’t have US access to space without SpaceX (Boeing fiasco…).
