Poll: Rockets?

[Jingthing]

How do you feel about the rockets? Do we love them, hate them, or don't care?

[ThailandRyan]

Rockets we don't need no stinking Rockets.  What the hell is the meaning of a rocket.  Will the rocket blast off when we get a warning, show flames if a poster is put in a time out, or will the rocket explode if banned.  What gives?

[DrPhibes]

Some of my friends are rocket scientists and more ????  Trying to get the skinny on what exactly is the bottleneck holding up Raptor engine production for Musk.  I think there is a design flaw in one of the pumps due to an alloy choice for the pressures involved but I'm still waiting to hear what exactly.  It might be the last straw for Raptor V1 and now just on to V2 which is easier to build but facilities not ramped up yet for it leading to costly delay.  No such thing as an ex-Marine or Engineer!

[Carib]

I think it is childish. 

[orchis]

what fresh hell is this?

[Dmaxdan]

I'm not sure. It was rather thrust upon us.

[bbko]

Doesn't bother me one bit.

Yeah.

What people choose to do with their rockets behind closed doors is their business.

But these rockets are being waved shamelessly in our faces.

We don't even have the option to make them go away.

Kind of emasculating, no?

Stockholm rocket syndrome?

[CHEYENNE5668]

They've gone downhill since they lost James Hardin

[CharlieH]

Pointless, badly designed, badly plsced, of no practical use being not configured.

 

I am hoping they will be eliminated in coming weeks ????

[OneMoreFarang]

It seems some designer had too much time and not enough taste. I guess what I am saying is it kind of fits with the rest of the "design".

V2 is routinely operating at 300 bar.

Below is correct placement of said rockets.

Bad news. Sounds like some internal drama. Hopefully they just get the thing to work, I'd really like to see it off the ground.

[mahtin]

Recurring theme in dubious software. To be avoided.

[Jingthing]

Those that voted that they love the rockets.

I think y'all are just messin' with us, yeah?

Otherwise, kindly explain yourselves preferably with charts and graphs.

Nothing wrong with the bar stool guys at Sandhurst.

The ratio of hate to love now stands at over 4 to 1.

 

So is it thus resolved that the rockets must go?

[sipi]

I don't get the rockets.

Then again: I don't get rap music, man buns, 58 genders, and a million other things.

[lopburi3]

Rockets?  That male gender plumbing with STI is a rocket?
