What kind of people are you talking about? How many investors would discount a company based on a typo? The kind of people that matter to them would never form an opinion based on something so trivial.

Missing a typo on a website is trivial, but it leads to wondering if they missed something more important. You don't want to see your investment impact the Moon 10x faster than it was supposed to because somebody misplaced a decimal point.

Yep I'm sure the people who write the website copy also calculate the orbital dynamics, and I'm sure they give both items the same scrutiny. I would love to see one iota of evidence that the occurrence of typos in web copy is a good predictor of anything whatsoever.

I mean come on, the plaque placed on the moon by Apollo 11 has a typo on it! http://timdroogsma.blogspot.com/2009/07/typo-on-moon.html

I don't buy it. I can't remember seeing AD/BC go before the year number even once, and I see it after all the time.

The whole website looks far from professional and well funded...

Oh, it could be much worse. The first website of SpaceX was, IMO, with questionable design.
