It is the ultimate dream of their agency to send someone to Mars. I am on board with them 100%.

That's one of the main goals of Elon Musk. Big reason for SpaceX and their future goals.

NASA can't compete with private industries that are able to innovate for much cheaper. Space X's contract with the government is 90% cheaper than what it would cost for NASA.

Firefly Space Systems is a company that's planning on launching satellites for 7-10 million dollars. While similar space missions like that used to cost hundreds of millions.

Private companies innovate just as well as NASA. The main difference is their ability to implement innovations at a much faster pace. NASA has to deal with a lot of bureaucratic bull. They need some major changes, if not these private companies will leave them in the dust within the next 20 years
