Took a little detour to see it all yesterday. It’s not perfect but oh is it magnificent compared to before.

Yes, it eats into the margins, but it is actually a very small amount of the total fuel (a few percent) because the booster is so much lighter coming down than going up. The vast majority of the velocity is actually still bled off via air resistance despite the lack of parachute.

Accuracy, and less weight on the rocket (no extra hardware on the rocket that isn’t needed for going up anyway)

There is another category between home charging and fast charging. The majority of my charging is at work on a 7kW charger at about 45p/kWh which is fairly equivalent to petrol. Too expensive and not available to everyone? Yes. But more on streets and at shops, workplaces etc is the way to fix this.

I mean I hate the guy as much as anyone else but you do realise every rocket ever made has had at least a part and usually all of it crashed into the ocean, and that the whole point of starship is not to do that?

Fun fact: my brother lives a stone's throw from Dale Vince's house in the Cotswolds, and his 500-year-old iron forge gets an excellent coefficient of performance from this Mitsubishi heat pump.

Don’t worry, there is a 0% chance of delivery on any of these promises. Pure stock pump rhetoric.
