The fucking flaps keep burning off 😂 Design flaw. Better to just have some ULA designed command module like Apollo.

>>25545957 >toys This is where the real struggle is occuring. The White race must return to space, it is our destiny. It is no wonder that in the 60 years since the last attempt was deliberately wrecked by communists we've become listless and open to invasion from foreigners. Putting us back on the Moon will once again instill purpose, restart our Faustian drive to conquer the world around us, and rouse our racial consciousness.

>(j) buffer material added to protect side of ship from arms during catch; Seems like this of all things should have been considered much earlier.
