> "The space agency hoped to establish operational redundancy by having two companies under contract. However, Boeing Starliner's fault-plagued test flight means a second option is at least six months away. Musk's space company has already operated nine missions and the SpaceX Crew-10 mission is currently underway with four crewmembers on the station: NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Russian cosmonaut Kirill Peskov and Japanese astronaut Takuya Onishi."
Not too long ago Musk was arguing against NASA's policy of spreading their money around to different contractors, saying they'd get to Mars faster if they spent it all at SpaceX.
Now it's pretty clear that NASA has given too much money to a company that's simply not reliable due to its leadership. It's time to spend more at Boeing and possibly elsewhere.
It's a real shame that the great work the engineers were doing at SpaceX is now being undone by their top executive.
