betting time! Will it be able to:
- pass the launch tower?
- get through MaxQ? <– the high score so far
- Properly separate stages? (hot staging this time!)
- get to orbital velocity?
- complete its partial orbit?
- survive re-entry forces?
- hit the specified “landing” zone? 7b. Will the booster hit its landing zone?
wildcard: will the self destruct work properly this time?
I’m a simple man, I just want hot staging
I think it’ll reach separation (3), but too many engines will have shutdown to reach orbital velocity(4). Self destruct will be beautiful and immediate this time.
