SpaceX and Boeing Still Need a Parachute That Always Works

I was just sharing information that I found interesting which kind of contradicted your claim that fueling was a common source of issues for SpaceX. I find this stuff super interesting, and I figured others might as well.

I'm not trying to argue or get in internet fights here, I just like talking about space stuff.

Same, and I thought it was important to point out that the Draco motor has so far been reliable in testing. The fuel systems seem to be tricky regardless of their failure modes: mechanical, or as you pointed out for Amos-6, material.

I too like talking about space stuff, I just think it's deconstructive to call out some random poster on the internet as pedantic lol
