SpaceX made NASA looks redundant

The pace that SpaceX is making progress made NASA looks redundant. Imagine SpaceX making a landing on the moon before NASA ! Embarrassing right ?

Anyway, this looks to be imminent, NASA is so risk averse and full of red tape. They cannot get things done in the new economy. Advancement in space technology is no longer dominated by the government anymore in this new age.

Risk taking is necessary in space exploration, you can seat at home if you are afraid to take risk. No pain, no gain, just as simple as that.

It’s a harsh environment, you cannot predict what will happen, you need to get out there to experience it. Nothing beats going out there to test out all the critical systems!

Anyone with technology surpassing humans would wonder why all the travelling and fighting and killing each other?? The earth is like a huge fishing tank view from space, so what is going on humans?? Human nature of greed and power will kill itself! Human nature is probably hard to change .....!!!!

SpaceX Starship first touchdown

SpaceX Starship 3rd ITF is likely in later part of March 2024, looking forward to the first successful touchdown of the both booster and Starship !  Controlling the engine sufficiently would be critical to achieving the landing either on land or at sea based platform.  Looking to see the first payload by the 5 or 6th launch. If the 3rd test can see the Starship coming back for a controlled landing, then progress should be fast. Should see at least 4 to 5 Starship flights or test in 2024.

Human need to move away from combustion engine

With the current technology, it’s difficult for human to think about moving away from combustion engine. It’s the only way they can think of that will generate sustainable energy to travel over distances! Generating sustainable energy without burning too much fuel is always the issue with transportation over significant distances! Or perhaps the fuel source is the issue with human travel!
