    Nice!

    I still like my test stands doing more aerobatics, but hey, this is an expensive backup.

    Damn BN1 is a beast. SLS first stage is 54m tall, Super Heavy is 72m tall. Oh, and with all the raptors, will produce around 12,000 kN (SLS stage 1 test fired today produces 7,440 kN, SRBs produce 14,600 kN ea) ..

    Pretty amazing to see it stacked up like that.

    Interior useable volume will be insane. An older comparison:

    Did you click the link that’s above? It should bring you to an 8 page doc with the diagram on page 7. Easier with a computer than a mobile...

    I thought there would be more "made for TV" specials about Perseverance. Anyone else?

    Was a bit worried there was a major hiccup but I just logged on and they have more pics and vids posted.

    Last I looked NASA doesn't have sponsors. They feel, as a government agency, that it would create a conflict of interest. It is the same reason that NASA does not sell a bunch of the technologies they create.
