Re:How We Nearly Lost the Discovery Shuttle by InclinedPlane on Friday August 17, 2012 @04:24PM (#4398596)
100 is a bit of an artificial number. The only launch vehicle in history that has had 100 manned launches has been the Shuttle, but that was a factor more of the wealth of the US than the inherent reliability of the system. Consider that Russia/USSR have only had about 2/3 of 100 total manned flights of any kind on any launcher.
