“This guy has really surprised me. He seems honest and ethical. I would love to see Trump/Elon 2024.”

I understand the sentiment & attraction of that ticket.

However, I think Musk should stay in private business because he can add more value to our nation through commerce than politics.

President Trump on the other hand should stick to the political arena.

Both men can make great contributions to our nation as we move through the Biden/Harris apocalypse.

It may be old, but it works and it is cheap.

the basic tech has not changed, it is mostly the ability for recovery and reuse that is better now.

Russia is not investing in it, I don’t think. It is a simple use of old Cold War stockpiles.

Space-X and other new ventures are the future. The Moon was beyond the reach of the private sector, but manned space, apparently, isn’t.

said, " (NASA) has just “lost it” as far as space technology goes."

NASA "lost it" more so then most people understand. This claim that the sun doesn't have a lithosphere is the bases for nearly everything they're publish today. The claim is as stupid the flat earth argument.
here is a real scientist explaining how this theory started and why it still exists.

Musk has plans to build bases on the Moon—but it may take a while.

Once he decouples from NASA he can make it happen.

In 1969, lethal risks were acceptable. Not all astronauts survived the process leading to the Moon.

Today, politicians & bureaucrats are profoundly risk-adverse. They’ll Get canceled for using the ‘wrong’ pronoun; actual risk of death makes them apoplectic - despite working in a high-risk industry.

I worry that the person thinking things are wrong is wrong. Because that would lead to decisions that are wrong. And that’s just wrong.

Am I wrong?

I wouldn’t mind seeing that as well. I feel hes open and honest with what he thinks which is actually nice for once. Of course in recent years those “pesky” Requirements didn’t keep Obama from becoming president and and even Ted Cruz Was considered as well.

“So...they say we landed safely on the moon in 1969, but they just can’t quite seem to figure out how to make a spacesuit 53 years later?”

Considering that Climate Change and Mooslim Outreach have been the Be All and End All for NASA for at least the last decade.....

I saw a video where Elon was asked if he would want to be president. He said no, “it wouldn’t be any fun at all.”

There is no propaganda that can justify Russia’s atrocities. Let the Russians embarrass themselves further to the rest of the world.

BINGO - Ukrainians aren't stupid children and either are we... Most of us can figure out who's lying after a while. It's time for 'elites' to back off on being control freaks.
