Comment on Starship Orbital Test Flight Raises Serious Questions by Martin

I thought the article was informative. I don’t see the point in taking sides in some pro or anti-Musk debate. He’s clearly good at rockets with Dragon/Falcon Heavy being great successes. But how could he have made such a stupid mistake as to let a rocket of Starship’s power just blast away at concrete and hope for the best? Isn’t it a case of basic engineering – materials’ resistance versus energy? Didn’t he have an civil engineer around who could work it out with basic mathematics? A real blunder like a twelve- year old with pyrotechnics. He rolled the dice unnecessarily and now has set back the programme at least a year.
