It’s a great day for Space X but really a sad day for NASA which has been funded since the 1950’s only to give up and resign itself to being an UBER passenger on other people rockets.
A government agency that can’t even measure the earth temperature correctly….
From being able to fly to the moon 55 years ago
to barely being able to leave the atmosphere now is
a unique achievement only a bureaucracy, a very progressive one,
can achieve.
Maybe one should ask how a single person was able to outcompete such a Behemoth within only 2 decades.
I don’t know if Elon knows that he is doing it, but I believe the myopic view of American politicians have opened the door to the development of the Space Hansa, the control of the solar system by businesses, not government. At some point, Earth will be surrounded, much as Constantinople was, and the governments will have to do the bidding of the Space Hansa.
My late father in law Ashtyn Smith and his father Ralph Smith wrote plots for several Arthur C Clark books, including the monolith idea in 2001 space odyssey. Ralph was the chairman of the British Interplanetary Society, he produced a series of paintings of space technology, suits, spacecraft, and lunar bases, featured in the book ‘Exploration of the Moon’, with text by A. C. Clark. My late father was head of UK rocket development in Farnborough in the 1950-60’s, Ashtyn was junior at guided weapons briefly before joining Boeing in the US to work on the Minuteman missile, though my father said he couldn’t remember him.
