    I agree wholeheartedly. Public money is being funneled into the MIC, of which SpaceX is now an integral part. If that same money or even a significant fraction had been instead alotted to NASA since the moon landings, we’d have bases on Titan already.

    However, I want to see us touch the stars. And right now, it’s pretty much only SpaceX that has the drive and capital to get there.
