NASA's Artemis mission finally launches after faulty Ethernet switch delayed countdown

Having yet another H2 leak is not "flawless". Having the ethernet problems is not "flawless"

But yeah, the countdown halt points were documented well in advance. Yeah, SLS works so far, yeah, it is amazing. It is also over budget, delayed a lot, uses ancient hardware, and each launch is pretty expensive. The costs sort of come into a different perspective when you compare them to the prices of military weapon systems, and the military spending in total.

I'm still happy when ElReg mocks damn near everything, that's what we come here for.
