He “puzzled” nothing
He got pissy that Russia wouldn’t sell him an ICBM, decided he could make them for cheap, and then poached a bunch of people from NASA and JPL to do the actual work.
Then why didn’t NASA invented reusable rockets? And why Russia doesn’t have reusable rockets? That’s just dumb. I get the hate of Musk but declining what he did is just hate and not objective.
You guys are doing exactly the same thing you hate Musk for.
The Space Shuttle was a “reusable rocket”. And we generally tried to recover most of the boosters, where feasible.
And the Space Shuttle very much highlighted the issue with “reusable rockets”. When your maintenance and safety requirements are comparable to building the thing in the first place, you tend to cut corners. And then people die.
But, again, Musk did nothing other than sign checks. The actual scientists and engineers are the ones who have done all of this and “puzzled” everything together.
Pretty sure I am not accusing rescue workers of being pedophiles, whipping my dick out and sexually harassing women to the point of six figure settlements, owing my entire life to an apartheid fueled emerald mine, or spending billions of dollars to turn twitter into a hellhole of transphobia and white supremacy.
Look up the job of an entrepreneur.
Look up the job of a scientist or an engineer?
That’s just dumb, we were talking about Musk.
Continue to be consumed by hate. I’m out of this unproductive discussion.
Elon’s the one blaming the Jews for the world’s problems. That’s real hate. I love what space X is doing but Elon’s still a huge chode
They actually worked on it and came to conclusion it doesn’t end up much cheaper but increases risk. See how many reused Falcons SpaceX has flown, especially with critical missions. NASA experimented with many things, even shooting satellites to orbit. The fact it’s not used today probably means it wasn’t good idea to begin with.
A reused rocket mission from SpaceX is at least an order of magnitude cheaper than any other major launch provider. And to this date SpaceX has flown 216 reused rockets, and at least one of those was used for a manned mission.
