    Not very orbital, then, is it. Jokes aside, rocketry is hard and I hope they gained the data to make it work next time.

      Yeah it’s pretty much a requirement for a new space company to crash their first rocket. At least that’s my default expectation. Space is crazy hard.

        Did they forgot about the abort mission function?
        That rocket went ballistic into the ground.

        Also, years of years of rockets (and missiles) development, and it’s still so difficult.
