I’m sure another private interest won’t fuck this up. Especially one run by the king of fucking things up.

It’s sad that the two options are SpaceX and Boeing. Neither Musk nor Boeing inspire confidence in safety. NASA should have just developed their own crewed capsule.

“BuT tHaT’s a WaStE of OuR tAx dOlLaRs! We hAve ProBleMs DowN hErE oN EaRth!” Etc., etc., etc.

Crew Dragon has been solely responsible for the US side of ISS rotations for four years, without incident. 8 successful missions, not counting the privately funded trips. Cargo Dragon has been doing resupply missions since 2012.

Take solace in the fact that musk has little to do with the running of SpaceX anymore

With any luck he’ll have to sell shares to keep Twitter afloat.

Not sure how that would work since SpaceX is a private company. Pretty sure he would have to take SpaceX public first.

He will have to sell a rocket-full of Tesla stock though.
