Hmm, must be time for another multi-billion dollar injection into NASAs diversity efforts. Engineering is just a side job.

Unfinished capsule to launch on top of unfinished booster to link up with not-even-started lunar lander - in time for 2014 lunar landing.

Put me down for “not going to happen, not even close”

With Lockheed/NASA on the case, you’ll be lucky if you see this turd launch by 2071. Manwhile, Elon Musk will be sipping tea with his whore in a nother galaxy.

With the installation of our new tyrannical Coviet regime under Slo Joe and Cameltoe anybody stupid enough to trust their lives to affirmative action engineering in the new era Space Force will likely be burnt to crisps like so many of the Cosmonauts of Soviet Russia.

Hard to see how this project, SLS, or even the Space Station continues under Biden, so this problem is no big deal.

We’re pretty much done with manned space, at for NASA, and the money freed up from that is a nice chunk of change that Biden’s people can hand out to their friends.

...unless, of course, we hold the Senate.

It appears that they forgot to seal the top of the capsule... also to replace that aluminum foil over the port. :)
