[it was possible that the Australian Space Agency “underestimated the time and resources” needed to evaluate the license application, particularly given the small size of the agency.]

Yes, if only the agency was bigger. Bigger agencies are far more efficient.

It’s amazing that the primary impediment to technical advance in Western societies is not money, not engineering, but bureaucracy.

How much more advanced and richer we would be without the administrative state actively impeding human endeavor?
