1 year agoI remember that ten years ago you could tell it „Okay Google, bring me to [music festival]“ and it would reply „calculating route to [place where that festival is held]“ without problems. I wouldn’t bet on it still being able to do that.
It’s okay to hate SpaceX as much as you like but what gave you the impression that starship crashed? Both the booster and the ship itself softly touched down on the water at less than walking speed. They would have been fine on land and the only reason why they did it over water is that nobody had ever successfully landed something that big until today. Nobody had even reentered the atmosphere with something that big. The biggest so far was the Space Shuttle orbiter. The starship upper stage is 1.5 times the size and more than twice the mass of that.
