Why is SpaceX performing so much better than its competitors, despite taking so much more risk?And is the future of Space travel private or governmental?
Cancel Starship.
a drop in the bucket
>>16993103First you need to define what you mean by performing and what is risk.BO was testing its rockets on their only launch pad, while spacex uses a separate testing facility, who is risking more?
>>16993056Crane it on the pad

>>16993163"deadline"
>>16993165yeah you have a point. Unlike spacex, NASA never had a concrete timeline until very recently. Can't really blame them tbdesu
>>16993168you are saying that Musks random shitposts and off-the-cuff remarks in some random interview are concrete timelines?not to mention all the qualifiers he tends to use when he knows the probability is uncertain

>>16993158I'm not sure they even care that much I think they're going to focus on Tiangong more and perhaps get others joining in. The ISS is coming down soon enough and it's an ego blow for US spaceflight with them being the only manned presence in space

"On Monday night, Blue Origin’s chief executive, Dave Limp, said the company would launch from its damaged pad before the end of this year, less than seven months from now.None of the former SpaceX employees I spoke with for this article—some on the record, some off—believe this timeline is realistic. Twelve months was generally viewed as the best-case scenario. Eighteen months was seen as most likely."https://arstechnica.com/space/2026/06/how-long-will-it-take-to-rebuild-blue-origins-launch-pad-we-asked-some-spacex-vets/

https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-says-farewell-to-maven-mars-mission-hosts-media-call-today/>The first mission devoted to observing the Martian atmosphere and its evolution, NASA’s MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution), has ended after more than 11 years in orbit at Mars and a decade beyond its primary, one-year mission. The spacecraft was heard last on Dec. 6, when it experienced an unexpected loss of signal after it passed behind the Red Planet. The agency convened an anomaly review board in February to evaluate recovery efforts and assess the spacecraft’s probable current state. The review board has determined that the MAVEN spacecraft is not recoverable, and it is no longer capable of performing its science and data relay mission, which is consistent with the mission team’s findings.>Telemetry from MAVEN prior to the spacecraft’s passage behind Mars in December showed all subsystems working normally. After the spacecraft emerged, NASA’s Deep Space Network (DSN) did not observe a signal. A brief fragment of telemetry data from analysis of radio signals recorded by the DSN’s open-loop receivers indicated the spacecraft was in safe mode and rotating at an unusually high rate when it emerged from behind Mars, indicating a disruption in MAVEN’s orbit trajectory. The review board concluded that due to this rotation, the batteries on the spacecraft had drained, causing the communications system to lose power and rendering MAVEN in an unrecoverable state. >These preliminary findings do not address a potential root cause for the anomaly, which still is being investigated. The review board is expected to provide its final report later this year. NASA has begun the official process of decommissioning the MAVEN mission, following standard procedures to archive the full mission dataset for the science and exploration communities.

SpaceX plans to set IPO price at $135 per share, targeting record $75 billion raise>In a surprise move ahead of its investor roadshow, Elon Musk's SpaceX plans to fix its IPO price at $135 per share to raise a record-setting $75 billion, according to a source familiar with the matter.>The rocket and satellite communications company plans to sell 555.6 million shares, the source said.

There will be crashes for another 100 years, the nature of the industry means it will happen. Blue virgin tried to go ula route which is get it perfect then test it, space x gets it ready. Starship is cheap because it’s steel and he can spam them and the engines out until flight 20 for cheap before it gets near done. By flight 15 they’ll be putting star links up.It’s Elon though.

>>16993399What part of that article makes you think so
>>16993412They won’t throw anything away, ste us cheap as is methlonox. The boosters per material are very cheap same with the fuel. They can catch boosters and probably ships but Elon doesn’t want to destroy the pad. He can pump out a booster, starship and the engines in about a month now.
Think about it Elon has spent on the project starship and boosters maybe a billion. To build one and launch one is 100 million. For 10 billion he could have 100 flights. If they start reusing all they have to worry about is heat tiles and fuel general maintenance. 20 million is high balling it. The total fuel cost to spacex is around 500,000 normalMarket 800-1 million. It’s cheap. To build a booster is around 1 million in that steel. Each raptor 3 costs around 700,000 now. Tiles, fuel and labor repeat 10 million eventually. Falcon has about 10 million in parts resuable and fuel is around 300k for 1/8th lift capacity. Starship uses cheap fuel with cheap materials and is reusable fully
