Has anyone considered funding NASA?
They made rockets that didn't explode with duct tape and a TI-83 calculator.
Shouldn't be incompatible with nationalizing SpaceX and Starlink. Just give it all to NASA, actually.
Sure, that's the ideal.
Is it likely? Ehhhh
From this admin? Nah. It'll be stolen and given to, idk, Thiel or Vance or whoever, but not nationalized, just reprivatized.
They didn't, because someone got paid to write this article!
If that was actually their expenditure I don't think they'd have their budget cut.
Where's the grift tho? What's the angle? How will this enrich an uber-privileged pale bro?
Looks like we found someone who believed it was financially necessary for the manufacture of the shuttle to be spread across the country.
