I don't understand. Humans have built rockets before without explode. How are we now building them to explode?
>>
Can someone invent a way to put things into space without using huge amounts of rocket fuel shoved into a tube and pointed upwards?
>>
>>51988807
>Humans have built rockets before without explode
Bullshit. They are exploding all the time, that was the whole point. Making non-exploding rocket is really weird and unnatural.
>>
>>51988856
Space Elevator or Space Slingshot/MAC propulsion. I prefer the latter. It'll be like a fucked up roller coaster.

>>51988856
no
easiest way to conquer the amount of energy required to move a certain amount of mass several kilometers into the air is with a rocket.
>>
>>51988883
because they can then cause larger explosions on the way down
>>
What's the point of sending anything to space if there isnt anything but stones and death?

>>51988856
You can. Have a good idea? Start studying related subjects, may even graduate if you're really interested. Good luck.
>>
>>51988807
Plenty of ships exploded in the past.

Every single action of a space mission is a literal shit show and everything could go wrong at any second, destroying somtimes billions of dollars of stuff and/or multiple human lives. Not much has changed in the 50 years. Also the moon landing and the mars missions were all faked.

No one actually answered your question. It's because they've constructed all the parts in house and drastically reduced the cost. Like reduced to the point that a large shuttle child take a couple hundred people for $500,000 each.
If it could be done, then this has huge implications for future space travel
