soyboy rocketry deserves no hype. piddly rockets with legs are just a futile attempt at cost-saving from a decrepit and increasingly near-to-collapse aerospace sector in the US that has starved NASA and fully integrated the malignancy that is f-35 concurrency and procurement. hocking this shit off on spacex on the government dime beneath twenty trillion dollars of deficit spending is not an example of the free market at work, it is not capitalism. the customers of these 'people' include a pre-existing, mutilated government agency and the fucking US air force.

I find your response to that anon very pragmatic and reasonable.

We need to make allowance that all possibilities, even what we consider to be counter to very fundamental knowledge, might be correct. It takes imagination to let your mind play in this gray area. Imagination that is woefully missing or drilled out of our colleagues through schooling; But, by practicing this dabbling into the gray we can allow ourselves the opportunity to adapt strongly to these new positions of belief when that intriguing information is found to mesh well with other fundamentals.

That's how we can glimpse outside the box and make the large strides towards greater and stranger knowledge.

This picture has always amazed me. The fact that a bunch of apes can understand enough things as to desing such a thing like a fucking rocket leaves me flabbergasted every time I think about it.

It's Von Braun with a few Saturn V early engines. I'm not an expert on the matter, so if what I said is not right please correct me.
