It’s proper embarrassing how badly the West is bleeding cash on this new space race. Landing on the moon fifty odd years ago with computers weaker than a toaster, but now we’re just building top-heavy rubbish that falls over or literally blows up on the launchpad.

That New Glenn explosion was a total shitshow. Rebuilding a massive lightning tower because of an "anomaly" is corporate speak for "we completely stuffed up." Private tech companies keep overpromising, but currently, China is absolutely wiping the floor with us. It’s hard to watch. Cool summary of the chaos, though.
