Singolare nel senso che sono stati gli unici, di certo. Singolare nel senso che c'Γ¨ qualcos'altro dietro, non saprei.
L'Italia Γ¨ pur sempre il paese del Moby Prince e del ponte Morandi, il paese della Uno Bianca e di Ustica.

Tutto Γ¨ possibile...

Let's be clear: it's great that RL is really pushing towards reusability... It's also important to remember that someone pushed for that first, against the whole industry.

I don't want to mix politics and technology, but despite what you (and me) think about Elon Musk now, kudos for what he did...

"If a plane doesn't throw away its doors to deliver cargo, why should our rocket?"

says Rocket Lab on X today.

Interesting because, reading feels like 2016 again, with a certain CEO of a certain company trying to pursue fairing recovery (and reuse) while getting mocked by everyone...

Intuitive Machines confirmed today, in a press release, that #Athena landed 250 meters from the planned landing site in a crater.

The lander is on its side, and the solar panels are not charging the batteries. The mission is thus concluded, and teams are analysing all collected data.
