Why it's here

Pointed to as a clear explainer of Relativity Space's fully 3D printed rocket approach when rocket manufacturing or additive manufacturing comes up.

What it covers

A Veritasium video touring Relativity Space and explaining why 3D printing whole rockets cuts tooling costs, allows rapid iteration, reduces part count and enables new designs. It includes an interview with Scott Manley on aerospace engineering.
