If it’s in relation to Roscosmos or something similar, I’d be totally fine with that. Soyuz has been a workhorse, it’s reliability is kind of unreal.
Contracting “private company garbage,” just like NASA is doing now, is what got NASA to the moon in the first place.
And fact is, their results have been great. It’s not a cultural necessity anyone’s forcing, it’s working, otherwise NASA would have dropped them.
I hate Elon as much as anyone else, I haven’t liked him for years. Maybe SpaceX has a terrible company culture. But railing against them because of who’s in charge sounds a lot like political meddling to me… What if Elon was bluntly liberal instead, and Trump canned SpaceX soley because of that? Is that what you’re asking Biden\Nelson to do?
