https://youtu.be/2Bz8Bm2H034?&t=175Did putting all our bets on SpaceX cost us the moon?
We already beat the Chinese to the moon over half a century ago. Why are we wasting money on this garbage?
>>107121693Artemis is .10% of the US budget
>>107121693should we tell him
>>107121693To fuck blue space babes with 3 boobs
>>107121693>We already beat the Chinese to the moon over half a century ago.Half a century ago USA was one of the world's leading superpowers and China was a third world shithole.Now, China is one of the world's leading superpowers and the USA is a third world shithole.Funny how the tables turn
>>107122142US is still the only country with reusable rockets.
>>107121678I think they already did, pal.
>>107122156>reusable rocketsjust like it was the only country with a reusable space shuttle which turned out to be a useless waste of moneyelon is just grifting as usual. we're gonna put tesla hyperloops in mars running in tunnels dug by the boring company and powered by solar roadways O ALGO
CCP state funded demoralization thread. Ignore and move on. Even posting in an OS console war thread is a better use of your time.
>>107122172>useless waste of moneyUsing non-reusable rockets for orbital launches would be waste of money.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_launch_market_competition
Half a century ago is not even a full human lifespan
>>107121678Why is the first country to put people on the moon (allegedly) worried about who the second country will be?
>>107122156China will have their own reusable rockets, you'll see! Two more weeks!
>>107122272You obviously aren't paying attention to today's mortality stats. I wouldn't be surprised if most people born in 1995 outlive most people born in 2025. Not live to an older age than. Outlive.
>>107121678Ok, so sabotage the Chinese mission
>>107121693some people want to work on this stuff okaylike some people want to work on gender studies or critical race theory
>>107122969This type of stuff is exactly what the US will spend its time doing as it gets further behind, we will be the ones threatening nuclear war when China achieves AGI and starts rapidly scaling it
>>107121693just because we did it before doesn't mean we can do it again.
>no chink reusable rocket yet>chinks gets raped everyday by SpaceX alone>but muh china is gonna totally defeat the americans brotop kek
>>107123101SpaceX rockets were never even close to the moon.
