I think the point was that the current design can’t work; not that no design can work. And no clever flaps or heat shielding will work. If that’s the case, they have a pretty big setback and may be wasting time on the current design.

We’ll see if this launch will work. I’ll find the blog and read it again if it fails, and link it here for anyone that is interested.

Read a blogpost once that said the starship in it’s current design will never work. Something about the heat generated. Only reason why I am curious about this launch.

Is the outlook good on this one?

My dream game has always been a game that combines the most impressive technologies with open ended gameplay. So like impressive modern graphics and; physics and; Red Faction-like destructible environments and; procedurally generated content. All wrapped in a good-enough gameplay package like an RPG or something.

I realize all these technologies come at great trade-offs, but the dream is a good balance.

It’s mostly the destructible environments from Red Faction Guerilla that I’d want in other games.
