    Elon can’t be trusted with it, but NASA would just stall all progress on it for the next fifty years

    All the downvoters should take a good close look at the cockup that is the SLS program

      NASA just contracts everything out. I think NASA would be much different if they had something like SpaceX (and was funded properly).

        NASA gets so much funding for the SLS, which is so expensive, that NASA itself is saying it’s throwing money away. It’s US Congress routing tax payer funding to disastrously inefficient contractors, not to have an actually functional space program.
