So, from now on, whenever I have to ask NASA legal about conflicts of interest I am going to reference the Musk-Altenhofen affair. I used to the cite Justice Thomas affairs, but this is way better.

We are just hitting the point of time to pack up and leave nasa. There are other places to work that dont have a musk sucking it dry. Space in the us will be dead for a while, but dont worry China will gladly pick up the slack.
What are you smoking? SpaceX doing more than China and NASA atm….
Saying that just shows you aren’t really a fan of space science. Most likely just a casual observer who likes rockets. China has been doing a ton and a lot of it successfully. Rockets aren’t that complex and that’s all the spacex does. I sincerely hope the populations beliefs dont reflect your own because if they do space science in the US is truly dead.
