> Rockets failing in test flights isn't a bad thing.
I hate to be pedantic but for a whole host of environmental reasons, they are suboptimal, and it still incinerates money to lose a rocket during a flight test.
Yes, building rockets costs money and is bad for environments.
Yes, exactly this. SpaceX are super environmentally irresponsible, I wish they would follow the ESA/NASA development model that is so much better for the environment! So European.
