I get that technology has come a long way since the N1, but it still seems like a big gamble
I mean, it “almost” worked last time, around 4-5 of them failed if I recall correctly. And the thrust vector control is electric now so that’s a huge upgrade from before.
Damn they had to wait 7 months? That silly FAA “stifling innovation”
Well, it started as just SpaceX Airplane, then it transitioned to SpaceX Starship, and finally after a legal battle over the name with the original members, the splitters became just Starship.
This history also ignores the founders that split off to start Hot Tuna.
