    But you can't learn if you don't fail!

    Helps when you go in to the test budgeting for that sort of thing, though. Especially considering they already have SN9 assembled.

    Not especially. Most expensive part was the 3 engines at about a mil a pop, the rest is steel fabbed up in a yard and they're an order of magnitude or two cheaper than what something like SLS or Vulcan, etc, would cost.

    That's kind of the genius of the whole thing - they spend hardware to learn lessons, vs simulating things to death and 'fail early, fail often' is an option by their methodology.

    When you consider how many times they failed at launching and landing the F9's in the beginning...one RUD (so far) isn't bad.
