I feel better about the Starship program after the last few flights. The heat shield won’t be as low maintenance as they wanted and the payload won’t be as high as they wanted, but it feels like there’s a path forward. The ship to ship propellant transfer experiments feel pretty far away, but not impossible to get to.
