An engineer who makes over $150k a year should never put their hands on hardware. You can pay somebody $30 an hour to take that risk for you. The fastener that needs two extensions and a universal joint to reach is a top 10 life risk and can mess up everything. Stupidity.

@Spacecolonize Not even. You need to avg just under 3 launches a day to hit 1000/yr. If each tower can support one launch/catch per day, 1000/365 = 2.74, so only 3 towers. In reality you'd want more, and ship production is likely the limiting factor if they are being sent one-way
