kinda weird to make all this calculation and then just zip tie some bag of cheese on it
They’re just doing debug Q&A on the rocket. Next time they’re going to fill it with -1 gallons of fuel and see how far it goes.
Only one way to find out what happens if the thrusters are on upside down
Maybe a good thing in a weird way, at least in testing? Helps you plan for the unexpected
