Cybertruck Towing Starship Engine in New SpaceX Video for Imminent Starship Launch

[Crissa]

It's incremental. A big rocket with a new fuel, it's going to take some getting used to. They might need flip tanks on the Booster, too. Or maybe they can not slosh the tanks as much as they did.

Lots of moving parts. They had to prove to the FAA they had control over the rocket and would burst it the instant it went awry. No recovery time.

But it's why we have to go back! Gotta make sure our colors stick ^-^


And why we planted the flag further from the ascent module on the second landing so it wouldn't get blown over like the first.

That first one, if covered by enough regolith, might still have color.

I thought the slogan was "These colors don't run."
I suppose fade isn't quite the same as run...
