  1. Newfound respect for Jeff – I didn’t know that he had this level of depth and knowledge, and overall investment in the project.

  2. A huge progress update and 100x more behind the scenes footage and info than we’ve ever had for what I think will be the worlds 3rd largest rocket(?) including a fully reusable booster to give us an actual F9 competitor, presented by Jeff Bezos of all people alongside Tim Dodd, and it gets a 70% upvoted rate here and 3 comments.

    Just /r/space things lol. The video gets a lot more attention and discussion on /r/spacexlounge with 97% upvoted.

    I barely follow BO at all(not that they release much to follow) but it was a very cool and detailed video. Jeff seems to know a lot of the small details too and not too unexpectedly is a much better and engaged tour guide than Elon.

    Will be pretty cool if it actually launches next year and if it actually goes well then it’ll be a huge leap forward for SpaceX competitors. Thats a big “if” though.

  3. So New Glenn will use 6 landing legs?
    How will it impact the payload capabilities? I asume the legs are heavy.
