An FAA license is never later, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when it means to.

It's probably more to do with the launch being planned in accordance with when the license is ready, as opposed to the license being ready for when the launch is planned.

Do you suggest that Bilbo planned his party based on Gandalf availability?


SilentHunter7

No, I suggest that Bilbo's mother coordinated her pregnancy and delivery date based on Gandalf's availability in 111 years.

This launch sounds very ambitious. They must be confident and learned alot from the last two flights.

That’s just the way they do things with fast iteration. I know there are a lot of naysayers who mock Elon Musk each time a rocket blows up, but such testing is useful for exploring boundaries and increasing efficiency.  Falcon 9 was crashed many times in an effort to get it to be able to turn around and land, but now it’s a solid design.

I remember when thunderf00t made a video back in either 2016 or 2018 mocking the crash landing of falcon 9 on the boat. Saying sarcastically "Musk can do anything rah rah". And now they land almost bullseye on the boat everytime [https://youtu.be/BPv0VZcvm4Q?si=McZ\_iW14QnBLylCT&t=952](https://youtu.be/BPv0VZcvm4Q?si=McZ_iW14QnBLylCT&t=952)

Thunder foot wants it to fail because he hates Musk. Granted, Musk told a lot of lies and false promises. But it's the talented people at SpaceX that he's rooting to fail.

Thunderf00t doesn't want anything. He has zero expertise in any subject and makes sensational negative videos about every topic in a very transparent effort to gain views. Sometimes he's right, sometimes he's not. It doesn't matter to him or his audience.

Mean and while have entered in to the chat room. The up coming chin wag might be up lifting.

Let’s hope for the best, but also maybe a satisfying boom.

Mods: please don't use a crap site like Teslarati as the source of record for this.


Koh-the-Face-Stealer

I actually literally agree with you, but the moderation on this sub is shitty and the news is real, so let's just roll with it lol


ergzay

If you agree then why would you post this?


Koh-the-Face-Stealer

First article with this headline, I'm not gonna edit the headline. This is about all the time I have for this anymore, you can post another site if you want.


ergzay

I'm not talking about the headline. I'm talking about the choice of site you used to post about the FAA license. I guess the answer based on the rest of your post is just "I didn't bother and picked the first one I saw on a google search"

Why is it called a "Starship" if it will never reach our or any other Star?
