Gates,
In the early days of the space race and V2's for that matter, how many rockets blew up on the launch pad or were aborted shortly after liftoff, before they got one to perform? The greatest Soviet, German and German American scientists and engineers were failing, one after another,time after time and they had a huge amount of resources and military budgets backing them.

Hell, private companies are doing it now, because history did the trial and error.

That may be a poor analogy and I'm not sure who led everyone to believe they were ready for blast off, but they have to be closer now than they were then.

I've never brought a technology along from birth to fruition, but I believe solid engineering/physics/chemistry principles apply along with a heavy dose of trial and error.

Hopefully, they've learned quite a few lessons from early work and that can only make progress exponentially quicker. Hopefully.
