As an Ars subscriber I appreciate not being held in a one note echo chamber. But waking up to a Monday morning ‘We don’t appreciate the Falcon 9 enough’ piece is a bit rich. Any update on part 2 of the orbital data centers trilogy - or perhaps that one doesn’t look as optimistic?
So you think that this notable achievement should be quashed because elsewhere Musk is driving SpaceX in directions many find troubling? I'd argue that's exactly the sort of 'opinion-grounded' journalism that Trump is fighting for, and that alone should give you pause.
Part of balanced, worthwhile journalism, is reporting what is notable without giving in to the binary 'entity is good/bad' opinion filter.
