Yes, they did. Great achievement, I was afraid they might abandon the approach sooner or later.
This only meant to say that New Glenn isn't that different from Falcon 9. Both are limited (with respect to cost and frequency of launches) in that they need to throw away hardware on every launch. Starship on the other hand will be a true game changer if it works as intended.
I wonder how accurate it is to call the Falcon 9 the Model T of the rocket world.
I wonder how long we have to wait for the moral equivalent of the 65 Mustang, or even the '63 Stingray, complete with malfunctioning headlights.
Almost all scifi is SSTO craft, or craft that never enter atmosphere. Maybe if we start building skyhooks we can split the difference, and have craft you reuse with only minor maintenance between flights.
