This is a normal post But both projects are proposed by private companies, each of whom 'funnel' US tax dollars to fund R&D for their HLV projects, neither of which technically exist yet.
Everyday Astronaut has wet sticky underpants for Elon Musk.

The US space system was established so that the factories to build parts for Apollo and Shuttle were placed in poorer states and regions, in the hope that the newly affluent workers would inject more money into their local economies. That's the system that SLS is operating in, a kind of American trickle-down socialist/capitalist utopia/dystopia where elected representatives always vote for more jobs, and why there's such pushback against reusability.

Musk operates in an evil genius system which also relies heavily on government funding, and an ideologically motivated, underpaid and non-unionised labour force... ...Is a way of looking at it that Everyday Astronaut is blind to.

Don't get me wrong, I think SpaceX has a more forward thinking and an ultimately sustainable business model (especially once they can mass produce rocket fuel from thin air and solar power), but both are genuine rocket programs.

This is a normal post Sure there is.
It's a tried and tested design dating from the 80s, using tried and tested parts from the shuttle program! And this time they're not putting the payload inside a 'glider' which also carries an offset rocket engine fuelled by a giant tank strapped to two giant SRBs, so it should be a piece of piss.
(, Fri 13 Nov 2020, 23:22, Reply)
This is a normal post No it’s not.
It’s a new design based on a small number of major components that were tried and tested on other launchers, joined up by a lot of components and systems that are unproven in flight.
(, Sat 14 Nov 2020, 9:38, Reply)
This is a normal post An awful lot of Starhip's components and systems are unproven in flight. By your standards every payload on every rocket is unproven in flight and lacking evidence that it will ever fly.
Except that's an intrinsically silly thing to say. SLS's main advantage over Starship is that it's just the latest in a design history going back to the 80s, and many different permutations of various configurations of SLS's stock components have successfully flown.

To suggest there's no evidence that SLS will fly is therefore silly. Your "small number of major components" include the engines, the fuel tanks and plumbing, the boosters, the aerodynamics, the reaction control, the flight control and all the parts to link them together. The parts that deliver the payload. The parts that make the rocket that takes your stuff to space.

"This is Transmissions, the definitive story of Joy Division and New Order. Based on new and exclusive interviews with Bernard Sumner, Stephen Morris, Gillian Gilbert and Peter Hook, this series captures those vivid moments that tell their tale like never before."
It's done by them themselves, narrated by Maxine Peak and you can find it elsewhere anyway (I get it off Acast) but this is the youtube link. It's also on amazon, apple, spotify, deezer and no doubt all sorts. There's a bunch more info at www.neworder.com/newordernow/2020/10/9/transmissions-the-definitive-story.html before you commit ( there are rumours bono is going to turn up. I know, I know)
