  1. It's interesting watching this after the escape system proved itself invaluable a second time just over a year ago on Soyuz MS-10, when it saved three astronauts headed to the ISS. Scott Manley's video on the subject, "In Flight Camera Shows Damaged Sensor Destroyed Soyuz Rocket" explains it well.

  2. They don't reclaim the boosters?? those landing in the wild cant be good for the wildlife!? that's not good!? they need to go the spacex way and reuse them, or at least pick up the trash!? We cant keep doing this to our planet and not think there is a cost to the only place we live on, that's just insanity!
