The technology would be TRANSFORMATIVE to the very definition of human wellbeing Problem is, a billionaire is basically focused on profit maximization And that at the same time is both a massive barrier of entry to get the appropriate funding because of the extremely high risk, high cost, slow turnaround and no guarantee to make a profit (much higher than spaceflight) because no one has done it before and at the same time it is too easy to abuse as it could lead to a monopoly of the most inelastic product in human history: life itself

It is entirely fitting that Tim Dodd gets the first big tour of Blue Origin. If ever there was a space reporter that deserved that honor, it is Tim. And we all know Tim will ask intelligent questions, and since he deeply understands the science, his follow-up questions are intelligent as well. As others have said, a walk-thru with Tim is worth millions of PR campaign. Also like others, I hope Blue Origin is successful in their early and later flights. There are far too many EXTREMELY important spacecraft that will be on those flights. Personally, I think they should wait for some of those, but today's space business takes more risks than the old days. I especially would not want to see Dream Chaser explode or Rocketlab's specially designed Mars satellites. Either of those missions would be a terrible loss.

Personally i wish them luck, i think there some ideas there that are actually an evolution of SpaceX ideas and if they pan out they will be new standard for reusable rockets. Then again if catching the booster like SpaceX tries to do pans out, that will set the standard for removing the legs altogether on such a system. We are witnessing processes and norms for reusable rockets being written and explored in real time and in ten to twenty years some of those will be history and standards, like some of the stuff explored and tested in the 60'ties are now for rockets.

They were going to lose spectrum access or something, so a judge gave them an ultimatum. If they didn't launch SOMETHING, they were gonna be in trouble. So BO has really been scrambling.

I'm a dyed-in-the-wool SpaceX fan. More than that, I'm a fan of private-sector orbital launch technologies. This video boosted my opinion of Jeff Bezos immeasurably. He's knowledgeable about rockets, enthusiastic, personable, and involved. I seriously hope his flight is on time and performs well. Tim, you are the face of commercial space launch technology. I seriously doubt there's a single CEO of a rocket company anywhere in the world who doesn't religiously watch your content. They may need an interpretor but they still watch.
@mobiuscoreindustries25 күн бұрын
I mean the issue with BO was never Jeff, but more that BO was using old space tactics and generally not really bringing the full capabilities of the private, vertically integrated capabilities that their situation would allow. For example BO got known for their lobbying and legal warfare, trying to patent ocean landings, sue NASA for not handing them the HLS contract out the gate, and generally doing the things that Old space was already ubiquitously known for. That is what got them their bad rep. This, and of course their slowness in acting on, well, everything. That did seem to get better with the change in general director, but of course now BO is a case of needing to prove their mettle
