New details of the previously reported incident underscore how dependent the U.S. government has become on a company that once had to fight in court to become part of the Washington establishment.

    I mean… that’s what the government, more so the political self interest in those of power wanted. Funding for NASA reduced and that easily could have done what SpaceX has accomplished, to pandering and almost begging Elon to get things done.

    The system is beautiful.

      Hmm. A dark aesthetic - but yes, I can appreciate the system for what it is (i.e., a uniquely inelegant monstrosity).
