All things SpaceX - Updates and Discussion



Nominal landing! Heat shield looks like it held up well!

Outside of the one RVAC out, Starship performed well.

Good flight overall considering almost everything was new. Redesigned booster and ship, new engines, new pad. Good progress

On Friday SpaceX launched the latest and largest version of Starship. Lifting off at around 6:30 P.M. EDT, the flight is the first test of Starship Version 3 (V3). This is the 12th Starship test and the first demonstration of the launch vehicle in seven months.

Fully stacked with its booster, the rocket is 408 feet (124 meters) tall. Packing about 18 million pounds (about 80 meganewtons) of thrust, it is the tallest and most powerful rocket ever built.

I have invested close to seven figures in SpaceX stock so far. I find it incredibly unlikely that the stock will tank or that my investment will go to waste.

I invested most of it over the past few days after the stock price initially fell by almost 25%, as many had predicted.

However, I view this as a long-term investment.

I don't expect a rise as stratospheric as Bitcoin's, but I could see SpaceX following a trajectory similar to Nvidia stock's since 2018–19.
