Yes NASA doesnt have a way to put a man into orbit, neither does SpaceX. Despite Obama taking all the NASA money and giving it to SPACEX.

It wasn't all of NASA money by a far stretch of the imagination. It was some, and only payable for milestones achieved.

SpaceX does have a functional spacecraft that can carry humans to orbit. It's just not finished jumping through all the NASA man-rating hoops yet.

I would ride in it.

Nasa has to have a meeting to decide who will be at the meeting to set the agenda for the meeting for nominating the NASA personel that will be on the steering committee that will nominate the NASA folks that will write the initial proposal for a study.

I know how that Byzantine operation works.

Isn't Mark "AR-15" Kelly working for old Muskie these days?
