      @@Retrohertz Indeed, rockets are NOT easy things to get right, even with the resources SpaceX has on hand. Their first three Falcon 1 launches all went ka-boom for different engineering reasons (and nearly killed the company in the process). And if you look at the Falcon 9 launch record, there's a fair number of ka-booms speckled in there as well. (The saving grace for the Falcon 9 is that most of the losses are re-entering boosters, which are much easier to replace, and not the actual vehicles themselves.)

      @@thedarkwaterbun They did successfully launch this most recent one, remember when they were first designing the falcon they almost lost the entire company. It took them longer to do more basic things such as stage separation, which they have now mastered, and can easily repeat on all of their spacecraft that are similar to the first iteration. (Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy) while Starship is brand new and isn't really being designed off of an existing rocket, and for their second test, they've done pretty good, imo. So far, their second test on the starship went better than the second test on their Falcon 1.
