I actually don't mind them working with methane, since it is a major component of useable fuel off the earth. NASA is very skilled at public relations, so of course they are going to market it as "green."

The bad part about this is there are private companies making equipment like this, and I have seen videos of them not exploding. Why doesn't NASA just buy those?

It seems they had a bunch of parts laying around and opted to do it themselves, unfortunately poooof.

Harvesting space for raw materials is a good idea and a necessity as we won’t be able to take much with resource-wise.

NASA kept insisting that the foam peeling off the external fuel tank had nothing to do with them changing the formula to make it more “environmentally friendly”.

I never believed them.

If NASA bought “off-the-shelf” from the private market, then why do we need a NASA? That’s what they think. They’re not stupid; they’re rocket scientists.
