Airbus can’t even get the 321 XLR certified.
She is not autistic and did not invent "reusable rockets" - Von Braun had the concept and McD (of all places) made the first reliable one with the DC-X (Space shuttle was also reliable but a grey area on comparison).
All Space Karen did was find a way to use it as a grifting mechanism.
