Two Rocket Tests

We really do live in the future. Today, in less than a 24 hour span, both Blue Origin and SpaceX tested their versions of super-heavy-lift rockets. Blue Origin with their New Glen, and SpaceX’s Starship.

It didn’t all go to plan for either. But that’s why you test.

Blue Origin got to orbit, as planned.

SpaceX retrieved their booster, as planned.

Regardless of the outcome, it’s amazing watching what we can do when humanity really tries to solve some problems.
