        Dropping the pretense & calling this for what it is...SLS Vs BFR. First to Mars wins! Let's discuss handicapping though. Well funded but bureaucratically constrained vs < $ but more agile dev & ops environment. This isn't your parents space race. Now, about the moon...

        The time frame is one thing. The cost is another. SLS won't be reused. It will be thrown into the water after every flight. You just can't do that in today's rocket market. If Boeing truly lands a man on Mars first, it will be because Congress approved billions of dollars...

        Maybe a new space race to Mars with Russia or China could help but given the current technologies currently in progress, I can't see SpaceX losing.

        Replying to @BoeingDefense @BoeingCEO

        FYI, they are counting SLS, which is at least remotely possible. The question is if SpaceX will get government funding, or if it will be a race between a private SpaceX and a public Boeing rocket. So it's not totally crazy.

        Don't count out Blue Origin. Once they actually start flying their rockets, it just may become a 3-way race out of Earth orbit. Whether it will be Mars or elsewhere is anyone's guess.

        I'm not counting Blue Origins out yet, just saying to totally have a seat at the table they need to launch something. Once they launch something it will be really interesting.

        Blue Origin is that one kid who had potential, and people knew it, but struggled to actually find it.

        It still has plenty of potential, just hasn't demonstrated it yet in the real world. It's that kid who keeps on studying and studying, and someday might graduate and enter the real world, but for now is just doing theoretical stuff.

        I could make it to Mars first too If I had a stranglehold on taxpayer funds. What I find amazing with Boeing is that you have had immense funding and resources for decades and are getting whipped by a private funded company in who has barely existed for a decade now.

        Also, you’re losing badly to a private toddler of a company and then taking the toddlers dreams and making them your own.
