I feel so bad for SpaceX engineers. If you grew up dreaming of space, you learn the math and science, and end up with that piece of shit as the figurehead for all your work.
At least Elon doesn't actually run things at SpaceX, despite what he might say in public. Gwynne Shit well actually runs the company, and is likely the reason it's actually pretty on track and hasn't gone the way of Tesla.
Starship is not like any other rocket currently being made, and it's being built in an iterative process, unlike the legacy rocket manufacturers, and even most new companies. This design process is intended to make changes and break things at every step, in the real world. Then make changes to try and fix those problems, and test it again. And not every step will fix previous issues. They're building multiple Boosters and Starships simultaneously, and none of the ones being launched are the newest version at this point of development. They're all older models by the time they fly.
All true, but he's still their official overall leader, company owner, and "lead engineer" and that really, really sucks.
lol. SpaceX are destroying Artemis as we type - and America's prestige as a space-faring nation - and are not going to Mars on any timeline, as Musk well knows. Musk doesn't care at all, it is helping him get to trillionaire status.
