Reusable rockets are revolutionizing space travel from "summary" of Rocket Science: A Beginner's Guide to the Fundamentals of Spaceflight by Andrew Rader
Reusable rockets have the potential to completely transform the way we access space. In the past, rockets were used only once, requiring a tremendous amount of resources to build new ones for each launch. This made space travel incredibly expensive and limited the frequency of missions. However, with the development of reusable rockets, this paradigm is shifting. By landing and recovering rockets after they have completed their missions, companies like SpaceX have shown that it is possible to drastically reduce the cost of space travel. This is because the most expensive part of a rocket is the vehicle itself, so being able to reuse it multiple times can lead to significant cost savings. Not only do ...
