    The fascinating thing is
    I used to watch sci fi as a kid in the 60s-on... Most rocket launches and landings were similar to this. It thrills me to see that humanity has made my dreams a reality. I am so proud to have lived long enough to see Space X.

    Once again SpaceX has done a great job for NASA. I really am wondering why the launch of Starship is artificially blocked by US agencies, while NASA urgently needs SpaceX to succeed for their Moon and Mars projects, which are of national and international importance. Why is their no pushing from the government in favor of space flight, like it was in the 1960s? I just can't get it.

      Politics.
      Elon bought Twitter, stopped the stupid censorship. But the WOKE depends on the censorship for crowd control.
      Look back at 2023, the wheels have fallen off the bus for the Dems. They can not drive a narrative anymore.
      If Starship becomes operational then SpaceX owns aerospace. The problem is SpaceX already owns aerospace.
      Same with Tesla, if they allow FSD even limited with Level 4 autonomy it would be huge. But when you factor the falling prices for Tesla and the expected rise in gas prices with the middle east getting antsy. Tesla already has the best selling car on the planet today.
      So while the Democrats try to throw monkey wrenches in Elon's path to slow him down. SpaceX & Tesla are already world beaters with the ability to do much more.
      Watching those booster landings never get old. SpaceX has been doing it for 8 years and I yet to see anyone else even at the test stage.
      Why is that?

      Because spacex was incredibly reckless when blowing up the last launched craft of that type. Knew that would likely nneed to destroy the thing and did so at an altitude that would ensure problems upon the "landing" of the wreckage. They found concrete chunks on a beach miles away as well as cincrete and rebard stewn accross tidal flats. A beach used by loggerhead sea turtles, an endangered species. The explosion started started a grass fire in a state park as well. When officials there to investigate we finally allowed in after more than 48 later they found the launch pad had been completely destroyed, which raised suspicion that the pad was not of the necessary construction (no blast channel???) to support such a launch. Thus, a redesign and construction of the pad was begun and would take time. All of this is easily found on the internet but you can't figure out why the delay in launching #2????
      Blame is not with any agencies, it's with spacex and it's assumption that they can do what ever they want. Clearly, it can not

      @@UmmerFarooq-wx4yo Musk has mentioned a lot of hare brained ideas. But what he has built is a launch pad that hasn’t survived a single launch Nor even test firing intact. Ever other country that has orbital launch capability has been able to build a reusable launch pad, relying on the wealth of tried and tested experience in both NASA and Soviet design solutions. His idea of ocean based launch platforms would certainly add cost and complexity, and all would have to be at least 12 miles offshore because getting license to conduct launches from such platforms is just as difficult as getting ACOE approval. Rapid iteration and redesign work great for designing something as cheap as a rocket. Ever rocket, after all, is entirely newly built anyway. But launch infrastructure is too slow and too costly to build an entire new design each time your old design proves bad. Thus Musk s on his 25th version of the rocket, but has built only One launch mount. Rather than redesign it from scratch, as spaceX does with starships, all he can do is try Adding on ‘fixes’ hoping those fixes will solve an inherently bad design. The solution is already well known. Lateral water deluge, a flame diverter,and a flame trench to channel the basting forces away. But Musk did it want to get the ACOE approval such a project requires, and he has Still not built a proper deluge, diverter, or flame trench.
