I said to a friend about 3 years ago that SLS is an unaffordable project , a burden to the US tax paying public and surely will be slowly phased out, he totally agreed with me
Private space companies are the way of the future supported by governments both local and international.
Space X is rapidly expanding at an unbelievable rate , no other space company can get near them at the moment.
Some people laugh at Elon’s ambition to set foot on Mars within the next decade or so.
Most people thought Kennedy was crazy in 1961 to land a man on the moon within the decade but NASA and the American people proved he wasn’t.
I was fortunate to witness project Apollo as a kid and teenager and now 50+ years on to be living in this next phase of human space exploration is so incredibly exciting.
