SpaceX's Breakthrough in Reusable Rockets

"rocket i mean that's a profound breakthrough the destiny of humanity will fundamentally change uh at the point of which starship demonstrates full and rapid reusability correct me if i'm wrong but spacex is the first that made the reusable rocket right like nasa no one ever fully usable yeah fully reusable well i mean the space shuttle was partially reusable um you know the orbiter the aircraft looking thing came came back but the the big external tank the you know big orange tank that which was also the primary airframe or the like the prime primary load bearing structure uh to which the solid rocket boosters attached that that did not come back which is very expensive yes they thought it wouldn't be expensive but it turned out to be very expensive um so the shuttle also the parts of the shuttle that were reusable were very difficult to reuse so um like the orbiter the aircraft looking thing um that took a lot of effort to refurbish between flights and the solar rocket booster shells it's not clear that those error made sense to reuse um so the thing that matters is is full and rapid reusability"
