I believe the hexagonal tiling maximizes area while minimizing perimeter, right?

I moved closer to downtown and against all odds I have car hoarders for neighbors. Really thought that was just a rural phenomenon agony-wholesome. Three adults live there and they have 6 vehicles on the street with another 4 in the back that never move.

They've made the first reusable orbital rockets (falcon 9 first stage), and made the practice routine.

They're the first to ever fly a full-flow-staged-combustion rocket engine (raptor), combining high power and high efficiency.

Starship has already broken records (owing to its sheer size), and if it fully pans out it will be the largest rocket ever, and the first fully reusable orbital rocket. Next test flight is probably early next year.

SpaceX are making significant progress in rocket technology.

The perception that their rockets blow up all the time is due to their proximity to Elon Musk, the high amount of publicity their tests receive, & a healthy serving of confirmation bias.
