   What an incredible feat of engineering, even if it doesn't make orbit. Just getting that much mass off the pad is mind-boggling.

      Well considering the point of it is the make orbit, it would be a bit useless if it didn't.

      Would HN describe a huge program that didn't do the thing it was designed to do a "feat of engineering"?

         Blowing something up so hard it almost gets into space is a feat of engineering, even if all it does is rain debris from ahigh.
