Dear @WSJ : As #sallyride told #bobcrippen, it's "crewed" not "manned" OR "womanned." opposite is "robotic". really, how hard is that? @NASA @NASAhistory @WomenNASA @NASA_Johnsonpic.twitter.com/vWY3WA8ABj

and we are aiming to put a HUMAN on the moon. not necessarily a man. got it?
Because did we ever really put a man on the moon?
12 of them, in fact.
If NASA gets to the point where it is totally reliant on non-governmental entities (corporations) to develop & operate spaceflight hardware (NASA already does this for launch vehicles), what exactly is its purpose?
While true I still wonder if this has to do with cutting @NASA's budget.
We can't even create an Aircraft that doesn't need a Rocket to leave the Earths pull. Space Shuttle was a Joke
NASA budget: $18b. One Nimitz carrier: $10b
Has anyone mentioned @elonmusk yet? No? Why not?
Of course. But how many deaths are you willing to tolerate? Commercial space has already had fatalities before even achieving orbit.
Yet we all still drive cars. How many deaths there?
That's irrelevant rational thinking. Apollo moon landings nearly cancelled due to Apollo I deaths on pad when there was clear race to moon and public backing.
How so? Thousands of lives aren’t comparable to one or two?
There you go being irrelevantly rational again. This country doesn't care about car, gun, war, poverty, or health deaths. But lose the lives of a few "heros" in something like spacey stuff and then we go all
.
Commercial space may be faster/cheaper but it is also explody.
People die in car fires. Gas explodes. The majority of cars in the United States run on gas. You’re confusing.
Privatization of space will result in a higher failure rate. That's a given. Will the US taxpayer tolerate that? No.
Tell Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos that.
It's almost like the phrase #MAGA fits...
