/g/ here how come I haven't heard much of this guy? How is he able to basically break down so many experts and stuff? Shouldn't spacex or blue origin hire this guy to work for them?

Because he’s not that smart and would rather do 5th grade level YouTube videos than get a real job or start his own corporation.

Nothing to be honest.
>b-but its expensive
Yes, super heavy lift is expensive.
>b-but it costs $4b per launch
No that is the cost for everything, the boosters, the RS-25D/Es, ground infrastructure etc.
>b-but it's not reusable
Yes, it is a high energy architecture that literally burns its engines to the point of failure in order to provide massive delta-v to enable direct injection to lunar, mars, jupiter (and beyond) transfer orbits
>b-but it's a waste of government money
It's one of the most effective jobs programs the US government has ever created; with modern manufacturing techniques and partnership betwween Grunmann and Boeing, the cost can be reduced to ~500m a launch which is fine to keep as a flagship rocket to launch expensive spacecrafts

Ugliest spacecraft ever made. It looks like a botched circumcision of a microdick. Would it have killed them to match the diameter of the service module to the capsule?

If it could be, then that would be one thing.
But what would be required to achieve that?
A 50 launches program spanning 10 years?
The problem with SLS never was that it wasn't reusable but that -- if it isn't reusable -- that is can't be factory churned out, either.

No.
He only knows how to say something won’t work.
He’s not smart or creative enough to come up with ideas that will work. So he’s quite worthless for a company.

I don't know what the rules are about (((them))) but the reality is that Youtube is (((Alphabet))) and they're prone and preferencial to showing talmudists on any and all topics, to the exclusion of everyone else. Further, with a specific spite towards Christians as the Talmud expresses they must be idolators.
Destin is pretty sharp, but he quotes the New Testament or something.

lol. Imagine getting to lunar orbit with a single launch and not fucking twenty.
