No love for Interorbital Systems?
haha.. I’m so glad I wasn’t drinking coffee when I read that.
Politeness and no information to base any contrary comment was my first impulse regarding treating the Interorbital comment with silence. Rand’s blog is interesting to me because it discusses real issues and real accomplishments wihin new space and existing programs. Interorbital will be worthy of discussion when they have accomplished just some of what they say they will do. Until then, they remain much less impressive than Copenhagen suborbitals and many others still in the dream phase of there biz development. Good luck to them, but on Rands site I suspect they will inspire either yawns, snickers, or sprays of coffee.
Indeed. JP Aerospace gets more respect, despite having a multidecade plan that is outright wacky, because they actually fly stuff. There’s no better way to prove you’re serious.
Having a multidecade plan to get to space seems to be a requirement for everyone with less than hundreds of millions of investment cash anyway.
