1940s parody be like:

Germany Could Send Troops to Future Ukraine Buffer Zone: Minister - The Moscow Times

Germany's defence minister said he was open to sending German soldiers to Ukraine to help secure a demilitarised zone there if a ceasefire were agreed with Russia, in remarks published Saturday.

Elonwa takes another L

Its bound to happen.
Elonwa's problem is, his tech isnt very scalable. Why ? Because his 'rocket' requires dozens of mini rockets to fire in tandem to create thrust.
This is the same problem Sakharov ran into with his original design, coz it creates vibration issues when u have multiple cryogenic engines firing in close proximity in a super-structure.
yes, elonwa compensates for the main issue with what Sakharov didnt have - compooter powwa thrust controlling to cancel most of the knocking, but it still creates significant challenges in material science to accomplish this over 'i make beeeeg giant inefficient nozzle'.

So with this in mind, you run into quality control issues - yes, you can maybe make a few a year and eventually get up to dozens of them that work in 25 years or so, but if you try to mass produce, your shit is higly likely to blow up and no mass production of elonwa's 'space car' = no space colonization, coz first vector required to colonize region x , be it via spaceship or cars or ships, is to have mass produced reliable transport vehicle to get to the region x.

Elon is a lot of 'thots and feelz, we will innovate that barrier when we come to it' about it, which is good when not in extreme as you run head-long to an insurmountable wall.

Errr.... the booster came back safely and made a landing. Falcon 9 has made over 300 launches and is now the cheapest rocket platform and greatly outperforms GSLV Mk 3 and is cheaper than that. Not only that, Starship is now the most powerful rocket in the history and greatly outperforms Saturn V. Elon is trying to make a 100% reusable rocket. That has never been done before.

So I would still pick Elon's philosophy any time any day of the week any day of the year.

Yes, i know all these. But the simple fact remains that the Falcon 9 is a rocket that is very difficult to mass produce. Elonwa can do all these things and unless he can mass produce the rocket, it means there wont be any space colonization, it will just be new age space missions that will be a fancier version of the old school space missions.

lol no other rocket has launched more than Falcon 9 and all other rockets have the same problem and in fact harder to mass produce. Elon has a very simple philosophy. Keep it simple enough to mass produce and that’s what’s he doing. His Raptor engines are the most powerful and yet simple enough to mass produce. Elon musk is all about mass production

Dumb question. Why do you need to mass produce reusable rockets? Am I missing something here? If anything the rocket needs more maintainability infrastructure. We should be able to reuse the same rocket everyday with minimal maintenance. That translates to 365 launches per year from. Single rocket.

He’s not mass producing falcon 9 lower stages but the upper stages that are not reusable.

To get to Mars and moon and make them cheap and affordable you need to mass produce starship to avoid the cost of $4 billion per launch that SLS is currently on.

The whole economic system will collapse if they don't do it. Today's Americans are nothing but Mujra artists & big mouths on sm. Today's Americans are not like what they used to be.
Their majority youth depends on content creation. The content dwindles around showing skin, pranking old people & then yapping about them. It's a big industry.
