Another new booster...how are they jamming them all into that hangar?

It must be a crazy sight.

Just hoping SpaceX will launch its IPO in my lifetime.

Yup, doesn't have to make a dime of profit in it's lifetime, but the stock price will keep shooting upwards.

These things take time. People were complaining for years about Tesla not being profitable but they made $5.5Billion last year with (936K cars) and $3.47B the year before.

To put that into perspective Toyota made a little less than 4 times more at $19B but they had to sell 9 times (8.8M cars) as many cars.

BYD Auto has been around for 20 years and I don't think they have made more than $700M in any year.

Great view of the cold thrusters firing dozens of times flipping the booster and directing it back to the pad.
