Fly safe, Stoke. Starship needs some legit competition. This design is so much fun, and I feel like it might be safer than Starship, at least conceptually for the entry/descent/landing. I'm rooting hard for this project.

Not about SpaceX

Probably better suited for [email protected], but cool nonetheless.

Lemmy's space communities (and niche communities in general) are so underpopulated at the moment, I think we can cut OP some slack.

This kind of post would have stayed up on the SpaceXLounge subreddit as relevant competitor news, so I'm ok with it here.

Fwiw, I didn't even know there was a Shitjustworks spaceflight community until now. Of the general space communities, the Beehaw one seems the most active, but that isn't saying much. The Kbin one gets plenty of posts, but not many comments. So, here we are, lol.

And they choose go hydrogen way. Bold move, especially with re-usability.
