lol just so you know a "laundry list" is a list of bad things.
And no, rockets that can put stuff into orbit where around even before Mama Musk shat out lil Mech-Hitler.
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...).
