The landing boosters do not save any money kid. For starters they cost twice to four times as much to produce, to test and to maintain. Turnaround time is also irrelevant as you just build more than you need so rebuilt or new boosters are on hand. LOL what was saved hereHey, sure, let's just build everything from scratch every time. It's Other People's Money, right? Saving money is for losers.Again kid, landing spent boosters adds zero thrust to the mission and actually reduces thrust by increasing weight. So the landing toys reduce max speed and altitude and or reduce the usable space payload.OH MY GOSH UR RIGHT NOBODY EVER THOUGHT THAT HUGE TANKS OF EXPOLOSIVE CHEMICALS MIGHT BLOW UP WE NEED TO TELL EVERYBODY RIGHT NOWBut when one of these over complex boosters goes boom you will remember where you heard of the issue firstNothing's going to change because you're stamping your feet and pouting on the internet.What works, landing a spent booster that has thousands more parts prone to failure. Sure it works but how much more powerful does it make for the mission?You're irrationally angry about this. It works, and it works well. Your approval is neither sought nor required.Wow a totally useless record. Are they going to do this until everyone dies on the way up again?SpaceX sets rocket booster reuse record in satellite launchThe USA has no boosters period, we were buying Russian ones. Again there is no reason to soft land as the work is 100 percent achieved in the burn stage, after separation the booster has no value to the mission so the soft landing is a wet fart worth nothingI'm curious about the basis for your claim, since the US has no liquid-fueled boosters that soft-land in the ocean.It does not decrease turnaround time, unless there are not enough parts, it's a parlor trick that achieves absolutely nothing in performance, while adding weight that actually decreases performance.Really? Dry-landing means far less turnaround time.Why is tesla wasting money landing boosters upright that need to be 100 percent rebuilt anyway meaning there is no advantage to letting them fall into the ocean.Yeah, in case you didn't notice, Tesla's vehicle and space launch operations are separate business lines.Tesla is getting government subsidies for every tesla they produce and tesla is providing nothing for that moneyTesla's being paid for the service it provides -- lifting mass to orbit.Again without Tesla subsidies there is no space xIf you're asking me to defend subsidies given for expensive toys, you're going to be disappointed.The only reason that Tesla exist is the government subsidies, so it seems that you are the only one who does not knowYeah, I don't believe anyone thinks that. Meanwhile, we no longer have to pay another nation for rides into space.There is no private spaceflight.......................LOL! Private spaceflight really took off because Obama gutted our manned space program.Sorry. Here is a more accurate view from space.com. You Obama haters slay me. Half of you being "Flat Earthers" anyway.
Obama’s new mission for NASA: Reach out to Muslim world
In a far-reaching restatement of goals for the nation’s space agency, NASA administrator Charles Bolden says President Obama has ordered him to pursue three new objectives: to “re-inspire children” to study science and math, to “expand our international relationships,” and to “reach out to the…www.washingtonexaminer.com
Or course then those same Muslims started reaching out to US and murdered many who were just trying to live their lives in peace.
Today i got to watch the Falcon rocket soar up into space from northern Florida. You can bet the progs and their Green New Deal will put NASA back in mothballs.

That's one way of pathetically giving him credit, I suppose.
Tesla gets ridiculous government subsidies that you pay for, so Space X is government funded. This way the government will not be funding the missions, or so the masses of dopes think

Looks cool right? With massive expenditure that yields no increased performance
It works. And it works pretty good. And we don't have to buy airfare to Baikonur. Not being dependent on another nation for access to space is a good thing. No, really.
ORLANDO, Fla., Aug. 18 (UPI) -- SpaceX reused the same first-stage Falcon 9 rocket booster for the sixth time in a launch from Florida Tuesday morning, setting a record for the launch industry.
SpaceX also recovered the booster successfully by landing it on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean -- the sixth recovery of that booster. The Starlink satellites deployed into orbit about 46 minutes after launch.

Again kid the used boosters that land in the sea can be reused too and both need a 100 percent rebuild and I will guarantee you that the old boosters are simpler and as such have thousands less parts that can fail. Landing these things upright is so stupid that it is retarded
Answer power is reduced by the thousands of parts that all have weight and reduce thrust.
Play on
Try and argue this instead of being amazed by something that has no purpose.
Crashes save money right? Whaaaaaa grow up child
This crash saved money too right?
A whole lotta cash saved here too huh kid
Do you own stock in the Russian space agency? Because you sure do hate it that NASA is buying American.
Suspect you are arguing with a chick named Star (as that is what the girl's name esalla means) or more aptly Star and Sickle. I was only half joking when I caller her Yuri, earlier in the thread. Good luck with her.
