🚀 Why Does Elon Musk Keep Patting Himself on the Back When Starship Doesn't Do Anything? 🤔You might think Starship hasn't done much, but you’re missing the point! 😎 This is a test program with a non-production version of the rocket. SpaceX’s goal right now is to perfect the landing and recovery process before launching full production versions. Yes, they could have gone to orbit, and yes, they could have carried a payload—but they chose not to. Why? Because landing the rocket—catching it—is the huge breakthrough here! 🙌🌍 What’s the big deal?Think about how we use rockets today. Imagine driving your car once and then throwing it away. Ridiculous, right? That’s exactly how most rockets work right now! SpaceX is flipping that concept upside down. They’re creating the first truly reusable rocket, which will drastically cut costs.While other companies are stuck with "drive-once, throw-away" rockets, SpaceX is making it possible to launch, land, and launch again, just like a plane. 🚀✨💡 How will this change things?Once SpaceX perfects these landings, the cost of launching rockets will drop to pennies on the dollar compared to competitors. This revolutionizes space travel by making it more affordable and accessible. 🌌Elon Musk is like the Henry Ford of space travel. It’s not about the flashy stuff yet—it’s about getting the technology right so that space launches become routine.
