Whoop whoop! I hope it caused a lot of damage.

a lot of tax payer money just give byebye, mostly, part of it went straight into Musk’s pocket
LordWiggle@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Yup. And hopefully they will see it is pointless and cut funding to spacex, instead of keep on throwing away money.

Good, eat a dick, Elon.

At this point I’d expect some brain leak from SpaceX. For some, no amount of money is enough to continue to work for a company associated to that toxic twat.

They don’t pay that well.

They never even made it to the launch.

Ive only ever heard from third parties that spaceX sucks to work for because they way over work you. Idk if thats actually true. But this kind of thing makes me wonder…
Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I’ve heard the same. I’m sure it certainly doesn’t help, but I think also what they’re trying to do is really difficult
Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Fairly sure they “saved” hundreds of thousands in wages only to lose millions to billions in material. An engineer working 80 hour weeks month after month isn’t nearly going to be as productive as one doing 40hr weeks, no matter how many hours they put out. There’s actually a point where it turns negative and every extra hour put in detracts from output, not to mention long-time wellbeing and development.

That’s the genious behind musk, overwork people 10%, gain 10%!!!

If I worked building rockets for him, I’d make sure they didn’t lift off too.

Iterations are getting more frequent, which is a good sign, right? Right?

At least they didn’t wreck (more of) the environment and nearly down passenger planes with this one.
Progress!

NASA should partner with Honda.
How much taxpayer money was tossed at the fucking bottle rocket failure?
AlteredEgo@lemmy.ml 1 month ago
I’ve been wondering why they don’t blow up more regularly. I imagine a few long range sniper shots would make them explode easily. They should be relatively easy to hit, seeing how big they are.

Rocket fuel is toxic. Don’t cook with it. Don’t touch or breathe it. Don’t even look at it.
Once it’s burned it’s mostly safe, aside from the usual problems with combustion products.

Is LOX and methane really that bad?

Surely they will blame on immigrants too…
