    Yeah. You go from you’ll probably implode on the way down to you will definitely implode on the way down.

        We still need starship to work. Give it 12 more months then do what you want.

          I think starship will be fine without mister “I’m so rich I’m not paying taxes”. He’s a glorified idiot, not a rocket genius.

            His wife stands to inherit everything from what I read. If that happens SpaceX could easily be sold off. Imagine Boeing being able to just buy and close down their prime rival in this sector.

              Oh no, one corporation doing shit to another corporation.

                At this point SpaceX is basically the space program for the US. The entire Artemis program depends on them, almost every government agency launch depends on them, and every rival they have is going to be pushed into the future because of them. If they go under we are back on ULA and you can kiss goodbye all of space science.

                The situation is bad but once Starship launches and gets certified for humans I expect everyone else will have to adapt and they won’t have a monopoly anymore.
