Those outfits look like they are from a low-budget 1960s Sci-fi movie.

Would you ride a bus that blew up a while ago? Maybe?

Good luck. I have seen a few launches and re-entries. They are hit or miss. It takes a special type of courage to do that job. I don’t know if Space-X/woke NASA is any better than the early Soviet space program.

SpaceX just won the NASA contract for the lunar landing system, beating out the oil-painting-slow-but-politically-connected competition.

NASA Will Spend $2,941,394,557 On SpaceX’s Massive Lunar Starship Lander!!!

Many people were surprised yesterday when news leaked that NASA was awarding all the funding from the Artemis Human Landing System program to SpaceX with its massive Lunar Starship project. SpaceX’s price tag is about $2.9 billion with a commitment to fund half of it themselves. While most space watchers could see why SpaceX had made it to the final round most of us didn’t expect it to be the only choice because it was so unlike what NASA was asking for.
However the HLS program only got 1/3 of the money it needed from Congress and with time marching on NASA had to make a decision and the only option with a price tag that fit was SpaceX.
