3 THOUGHTS ON “Stuff That’s Hard to Do (29 DEC – 4 JAN)”
Are you sure this one isn’t for April 1?
“Booster GS1-SN001 last launched unknown and has seen 0 successful launches and landings.
First New Glenn first stage booster.
Named “So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance”.”
New Glenn getting off the pad? Iffy. Something’s gonna break, be out of spec, or just flat fail. Space is hard, so are launches.
Looking forward to Starship, still gonna be epic! Here’s hoping the Tower and the Booster are going to be talking to each other this time, parallel parking a booster that just came from beyond the Karman Line is a really fantastic trick!
On to the Moon, then Mars!!
P.S. – looks like SpaceX will be landing on the moon WELL BEFORE either SLS or Orion.
