When burned, methane produces water and carbon dioxide, which are less harmful to the environment. The issue here is not with rocket testing, but with improper storage of methane
Always knew bezos was a cheap skeet. Can’t even properly pay his employees. So why should he make proper rockets. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It’s embarrassing because it sounds that all blue origin had to do was burn the excess methane to mitigate the impact.
This is leaking methane
I'm sure rockets testing is a issue on its own, especially when we are facing a climate and social crisis and it's being used for rich people entertainment or for aid authoritarian governments in shipping weapons into orbit
