Elon is doing a lot more with a lot more. Well, the people working for him are but he is driving it.
Not even close to doing a lot more. No human has traveled past LEO in a SpaceX vehicle. SpaceX will get there, but try not to diminish daddy.

It was a sarcastic post. Hence the “oh wait” at the end.

Did you read the OP? It's about Elon building a pipeline that's 8 miles long.
The article only discussed the pipeline? I know it was in the title but did you read past the title?

I guess if you don't count the Polaris Dawn mission in 2024 you would be right. 870 miles, the farthest any human had been since the Apollo program ended in 1972.

It's not replicating the going up thing that's impressive, it's the coming back part.

The reduction in costs have also been one of the most impressive parts of SpaceX.
Now that they are public there will be a lot of analysis of quarterly results for them to combat.

Crew did not leave low Earth orbit.

Elon Musk's increasingly ambitious plan to control nearly every link in the Starship supply chain.
I know that's one of the kinds of monopolies, I think vertical? But it could be great for coordination, efficiency, and by extension cost saving. Go get em, Elon.

Yes, which is what I was alluding to above. Reusing an entire rocket was unheard of before SpaceX.

My sarcasm meter was in the shop. I'll berate my servant for not having the spare running.

Once completed, what’s the over/under on how many months until a leftist loon sabotages it?

With think we were successfully catching rockets as they were falling out of the sky, and re-using them 75 years ago?
You aren’t dumbfounded baw, you’re just fricking dumb.

Henry Ford from 100 years ago says Hi.
Raw materials, much of which came from Ford-owned land and mines, were delivered by barge to The Rouge. Raw ore, raw rubber, lumber. Finished Model T's rolled out the other end. It employed 120,000 people at its height.
Henry tried, and very nearly succeeded, in buying the Tennessee Valley Authority for its dams and hydro power. The new Ford HQ would have been Muscle Shoals, Alabama. To this day, most of the street names there are names from Detroit. Woodward Avenue, Avalon, Michigan, Dearborn, etc.
Henry was and is the GOAT of vertical integration.
