A small hop by a prototype upper stage was a big step in Stoke Space’s efforts to develop a fully reusable launch vehicle.

Not about SpaceX, but I think it’s exciting what other reusable rockets are being developed!

    Fly safe, Stoke. Starship needs some legit competition. This design is so much fun, and I feel like it might be safer than Starship, at least conceptually for the entry/descent/landing. I’m rooting hard for this project.

        This kind of post would have stayed up on the SpaceXLounge subreddit as relevant competitor news, so I’m ok with it here.

        Fwiw, I didn’t even know there was a removedjustworks spaceflight community until now. Of the general space communities, the Beehaw one seems the most active, but that isn’t saying much. The Kbin one gets plenty of posts, but not many comments. So, here we are, lol.
