Don't take that too seriously :) However, Starship with multiple launches, all suborbital, with no useful payloads, and long way before becoming practical LEO/MEO/GEO launcher - steals all the attention, while other rockects, developed in similar timeframe - doing stuff from the day 1.

P. S. Not that US-designed rockets in the past were made by NASA themselves from the ground up, or not that I'm a huge fan of Bezos either.
Still, funny.

Getting to orbit at first would nice, they're not at all in a hurry to reach the Moon like they have NASA contract to do so. Oh wait...

Very human-like hands, BTW. Which means that they're likely not functional at all.

At first - tested with my own map (boundaries of tectonic plates, created with QGIS some time ago). My script not only can re-project map-like data in ortho projection, but also move from point to point in n number of frames.
And for this - scraped ~100 GB of data from NASA SVS. Awesome resource.

These are "wounded and killed", so number of killed is much lower (300-400k or so). But still, it seems that it's going to be 1M killed eventually.

If possible - please add original .fits files next to press releases. It would be greatly appreciated by educators, teachers and lecturers.

At first thought that it's some sort of a joke. Some fanboy made is claim. Or something. Apparently not!

SS program slowly, but surely approaching no. of Apollo launches (inluding test flights or Saturn IB) without getting to orbit. It's really someghing.
