>>1159327>Related fun fact: the booster rockets for the Space Shuttle were built by a company in Utah and to get them to Florida, they had to be transported by rail. One obstacle is a tunnel in Colorado (I believe it's the Moffet Tunnel west of Denver), and the rocket designers had to design the rockets to be small enough to fit. So basically, space travel is being determined by a horse's ass, too.Amazing, I was just wondering today why the SRBs and SpaceX falcon were 12 feet in diameter. The answer is literally "A HORSES ASS!"
