a redditor wrote a 5 year review of his model s
his good is four short points that boil down to "i like to drive it"

he then writes several paragraphs about how the interior is falling apart and poorly designed, it's been unreliable, and the software needs to be regularly rebooted

This would be a problem if they ran out of rich idiots to sell to and had to sell to normal people, but luckily their cars fall apart so quickly that they can just keep selling new cars to the same rich idiots every couple years.

I was thinking the same thing

The only types of air vehicles that can work on Mars (less than 1% of Earth atmospheric pressure) are giant delicate sailplanes or vectored rockets. The space shuttle could barely fly on Earth and it had much bigger wings and a hundred times the air

some "i fuckin love science" types probably think that mars has an earth-lite atmosphere just because the sky is colorful (e: sorta) in photos

to make a bigger rocket you just 10x all the measurements and call it a day right? surely nothing more complicated than that

if you're going fast enough then even martian atmosphere exerts some force. i think the fins are mostly just to help keep it stable, not to provide any significant lift.


that said, like all spacex propaganda, i'll believe it when i see it. i'm mildly surprised we even saw falcon heavy. i'm kinda curious if BFR ever takes off but i'm not assuming it's going to happen like so many spacex fans do.
