This segment was sort of a let down, because the same lies about reusable rockets were repeated without researching them apparently. Some of musk's most agreed upon accomplishments were achieved 30-40 years ago, but people on TV can't help but give him the accolades.
Also not much digging into the Starlink for Ukraine debacle, or the fact that he didn't actually donate all that hardware, didn't donate the service, and it wasn't being used in nearly the capacity initially reported because the people receiving the units were happy to bullshit for him as long as they got gear to use.
What are the lies here? Cause, I tell you what, those rockets sure seem reusable
He didn't create the first reusable rockets, his company didn't pioneer reusable rockets, and yet the lie keeps being repeated.
The piece starts with saying that SpaceX just streamlined old NASA technology, that seems to cover your specific complaint here. Did you watch it?
I did, but it seems you didn't watch the whole thing. I suggest watching it fully, then coming back.
I assert that neither of you watched it. In fact, nobody's seen it but me
I assert that I didn't watch it - "This content is not available in your country".
