    SpaceX looks like they're building everything in tents with hammers compared to BO. But, dadgumit, if SpaceX isn't sexier than BO.

    You suppose they made New Glenn taller than Super Heavy out of spite?

    Up to 60 per launch. A few had ride shares and had fewer. I seem to recall something about them starting to launch their 2nd generation satellites though, so those were probably 1st gen and had served their purpose.

    It’s interesting for sure. Check out:
    https://satellitemap.space/satellites.html

    Mostly early launches but some in later launches.

    The comment was tied to the discussion of space junk btw.. I was attempting to show about 2 launches worth have already deorbited.
