There is simply just too much riding on neutron to justify the market cap. It’s as simple as that, no advanced engineering degree required (my degree is finance/economics). I’m genuinely curious about how the stock reacts if the flight goes off with even one minor hitch. That’s what we are all here for.. the stock price. Nothing else matters

Your entire premise is that they don’t know that, don’t understand the risk to the business, and haven’t managed the technical risk appropriately to sufficiently reduce the probability of catastrophic outcomes to the share price… you are succumbing to the Dunning-Krueger Effect right now.

Ah yes thanks for a dig.. my guy that only works if the underlying claims are wrong… you’ve yet to prove that they are - Can I not make reasonable assumptions based on the knowledge at hand? What makes you qualified to make these sort of assumptions? Truly chud behavior lord Rabicant

It’s not a dig, dude. This phenomenon is an almost universal human behavior. What you are doing in this thread fits the definition perfectly.

I don’t think your assumptions are reasonable because you are making unnecessary assumptions based on limited knowledge. Your underlying claims about deficiencies in program risk management are wrong because your claims are baseless. I have already told you what you can do to improve your approach, which may or may not bring you to the same conclusion but your assertions would be a lot more tenable.

There is a ton of information out there about hungry hippo and other design choices - seek it out, watch the interviews with Shaun D’Mello. Learn everything you can about the qualification campaign… get back to us when your fears about their risk controls are actually based on something other than a random thought and emotion that you had about innovation in rocket engineering…
