    It’s funny I know someone who’s an exec at Boeing Space, which is practically a completely different company and 99% a gov contractor. Let’s just say the SLS hassss to work flawlessly because its got “Boeing” written all over its parts, luckily NASA is leading the project so it’ll probably go as planned.

        Not sure why you are getting down votes. Nobody wants SLS, even NASA. Congress is proping it up for pork

          Because everyone assumes if you aren’t a SLS booster you agree with every single thing Elon Musk has ever done or said.

          I hate how there isn’t a middle anymore. It is like the Middle East but for everything.

            Ah. Yeah musk is insane but his rockets are cheaper than the SLS will be. Hell Congress hasn’t even funded more than 1 or 2 launches because it is so expensive.
