They also paid for and agreed a timeline that included SpaceX landing humans on the moon in late 2025. There’s no way that’s happening anytime soon.
Super cheap reusable boosters are great, but they are worthless unless they help lift something of value, and right now Starship is an empty shell.
Late 2025 could easily become early 2030s.
True, but not exclusively because of SpaceX. The lunar suits are delayed, and the Orion heatshield has issues which need to be fixed before flying Artemis II and III.
