The R-SLS2 isn’t glamorous — no ion engines, no experimental propellant theatre — but it has three seats, an abort tower, proven SLS heritage, and a 2/2 mission record. In a program where the flashy station story blew a spec and the complex hub is under review, boring is having a moment. KerbTab calls that “quiet luxury,” except it’s loud on the pad.

MunShot Phase 1 is still planning. KOEING enters with the strongest track record. KerbalX still has to resolve the crew control gap before flying crew beyond LKO — KerbTab is not saying that’s a red flag, but we are absolutely using a red flag emoji internally.

Thermal margin discourse is ongoing. We don’t do margins. We do moods. The mood is green.
