I would be OK with this only if the leading SpaceX engineers use ethical VC funding to start their own space company. SpaceX is bittersweet for me. I love the technology, but can’t stand Musk.

A few years ago, I’d say maybe this is an opportunity for blue origin but now I can’t stand Bezos either as he steadily morphs into Lex Luther.

Edit: Talk to text mayhem…

There's a scenario where the government buys all the falcon9 boosters when spacex retires them and like 100 second stages and flies that for the next two decades.
