    I mean I am not a fan of either the opposit is actually the case but you do realize that SpaceX is the only private company that can fly people to the ISS.

      Their launch success rate is also extremely good. The Falcon 9 hasn’t had a single failure since 2016 despite launching something like 230 times since then.

      And that is 100% not the work of Elon but the real engineers at the company. He has no fucking idea how his own rockets work.

      He can’t even figure out how Twitter works, thank god he isn’t doing engineering on those rockets. (Though he absolutely would try if he had the chance, make no mistake. He doesn’t because he’s not a licensed aerospace engineer and he can’t get away with pretending to be one in an industry so heavily regulated.)
