SpaceX made it to the space station with their unmanned crew capsule a few months ago. But then the reused capsule exploded during a test. SpaceX is scheduled to do their in flight abort test next month, and then the crewed test shouldn’t be too long after that if everything goes well.
However, Boeing/ULA is being paid a lot more money to do the same job and falling behind.
Imagine that NASA landed guys on the Moon and brought them back to Earth safely in 1969!!! They aren’t even close to being able to do that now. People would die.
I know...I think this just highlights private enterprise.
