That would take too much energy, it would be simpler to send him into a geostationary orbit.

Cheaper to just "forget" to set up the ramp and let him faceplant on the runway getting out of a plane.

I'm just saying, soon he'll be flying on a plane that was "free".

I'm not saying we should actually make a realistic attempt (according to various videos of actual rocket scientists, it's virtually impossible anyway), but we could "try".

You know, as a treat.

Sounds like you want a destabilized orbit that results in re-entry

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Hey, burning up on reentry is a feature, not a bug!

How about the next Starship test?
