the Falcon 9 Block 5

Shifting the launch pads with this my dude.

Falcon 9 has 3 failures, and a partial, with just under triple the flights as the delta 2. It's down to hundredths of a %. Also, the delta 2 was originally a 50s era nuke, rebranded for the 80s. Even the soyuz has a great launch number, just they lack self landing boosters... which is just an incredible feat.

I just checked Wiki, and Google AI’s numbers were correct for the Delta 2. Don’t know where you’re getting your numbers from.

Not to mention, the Delta 2 wasn’t man rated or reusable.

At my age, no just not in good enough condition.

Anytime prior to 40 I’d have fought to get to the front of the line

So you just made it clear you can't tell the difference between experimental rockets and ones in production.

Way to make your idiocy clear.

Is it? I mean, manned or not, they are building a track record and I'm not sure it's good.


Do you get in a car? You know they have crash tests right?

You went through all that trouble to make this post just to make yourself look really, really dumb.

Good job numbnuts.

Apparently no one from upt. Just saw two videos of Tesla trucks in parades getting all fricked up by people throwing beads.

This may have been a singular time I support a drive by.

People always trying to find some symbolic victory against Musk or Trump are sad.

Why do people think SpaceX and NASA are competitors? SpaceX is a NASA vendor.

NASA literally learned from the Nazis hard earned lessons if you're going down that route.

I swear you idiots constantly trying to discount Musk are as annoying as the morons that always give him.
