NASA went private because they wanted to save money. Falcon 9 have achieved so much more than any government ever has. Shows how little you know about spacex or even space in general.
How much of american GDP went towards Apollo? How much is going to SpaceX?
NASA saved a fortune on SpaceX. Elon must be a genius then if he managed all this with no formal education. What a legend.
Starship is overdue so is SLS. It's rocket science. No one said it was easy.
Again SpaceX is trying to do something that no one else is even trying. This year is just data collection. Also they have been slowed by government, but they would still be behind anyway.
You just can't face or you are just ignorant to what Spacex has actually achieved. Go look it up.
I know they achieved a lot but elon musk is still a cunt. I will hare everything he is tied with because he is a symbol (to me and many) of everything wrong with the current gilded age of capitalism. I know quite a lot about space, and Im very enthusiastic about it. What im not enthusiastic about is leaving a science frontier in the hands of this fucking idiot.
By the way the spacex community must be the last bastion behind elons back besides right wing insurrectionists on twitter. Good company.
Its more of an engineering frontier and that has always been advanced best with capitalism. Unfortunately nothing has come along that's better.
