    SpaceX does one thing though… Well, three things. Rocket development, launch services and starlink.

    NASA does a whole lot more, they have 10 times as many employees and far more suppliers than SpaceX does. SpaceX is basically a service provider for NASA.

    This is kind of like saying that Lockheed Martin is more efficient than the department of defense.

      SpaceX gets shit into space cheaper than NASA. Let’s just compare the services that both provide and not move goal posts.

          Ok… So what does NASA do that overlaps with SpaceX? Apparently nothing. NASA is 100% dependent on private rockets. Are we supposed to call that a win or a loss?
