    Nah, I mock this and I’ve built shit. The fact that musk is failing at stuff we’ve done before is hilarious.

          What? 😂 This flight wasn’t supposed to go to the moon. It’s a test flight. They’re developing the most powerful rocket to have ever flown and recover every part of it. They’re also using a power cycle for the engine that has never been used before. So no, what SpaceX is doing has never been done before.
