No one is competitive with SpaceX now and Starship hasn't even launched yet.
Virgin galactic still alive
Very informative and worthwhile view
Not true on the importance of failure rates in today's age. Only for manned missions. That, and the fact it is a private company not entirely reliant on public funding is why SpaceX was satisfied using consumer-grade electronics for a lot of it's stuff, because the extra few significant digits of safety were irrelevant to them.
Andrew is phenomenal...I'll be watching for more of his presentations!!
Ask any freshman and he'll tell you that, when your "Rocket's a Virgin", you can't fly around much.
You won't last long if your rocket's a virgin
Nobody died from Virgin Orbit.. that was Virgin Galactic.
Epstein Island maybe?
1:49 Sad little Rocket Lab, Peter Beck, noises. Rocket Lab has put a bunch of payloads in orbit. But Jeff Bezos with Blue Origin is mentioned when they don’t even have a rocket after their one and only had an accident. Even when Blue Origin had a rocket the most they did were straight up and back hops, 10-12 minute carnival ride. Orbital launches are at least an order of magnitude harder than suborbital hops.
Are you a short or just horribly misinformed 😂.
Mixing up virgin orbit and virgin galactic
British tech is backward and expensive.
That's okay, now Branson can concentrate on virgin galactic
and bankruput that too! lol....hes on a roll...twice in 3 years
You’ll note Blue Origin as well is having some serious issues and huge delays, which is actually affecting other space companies due to delays in delivering engines.
You showed three businesses and three businessmen, Virgin, Blue Origin and SpaceX. The three leaders were Branson, Besos and Musk.
First is now gone, second appears to be going nowhere, third will believing around 80% of all tonnage going to space in 2013.
The third has launched 3 ships in less than 2 days… 2 ships in less than 5 hours. They have returned over 180 ships back to earth successfully.
Branson has gone to space, Besos has gone to space yet the billionaire with BY FAR the most expertise in aerospace has never been to space. Not because he doesn’t want to!
Musk does not do space flight for show but rather to fulfill a mission.
Hahaha
Buh-bye
Another victim of rising rates/QT.
Go woke go broke!
