You honestly think that as inept as the US government is, they were able to fake a moon landing and not a single politician or bureaucrat squealed?
Jet fuel can't melt steel beams either, right bro?

Bezos’ Blue Origin is working on a philosophy of perfection on paper meanwhile SpaceX believes in rapid testing iterations where they can analyze real data. I’ll take SpaceX’s method as it has allowed them to already launch and return at least 2 crews to the ISS. Meanwhile Bezos has barely gotten a penis shaped rocket to the Karman line.

Yeah and I think they killed JFK too.

frick Bezos in the arse with his flying dildo!!!
I wonder if Bezos is just doing the Far Left's bidding and all of this is really just a feint to slow down the program.
Chi-comms race to space; American commies always have a hardon to reduce/cancel the space program - you know: 'We can send a man to the moon but we can't feed the hungry children here on Earth!'...

Nah, like I said earlier Bezos just paid the right politicians to get them to reverse the award to Musk. It's not about what you can do, it's about who you can buy. It's the fundamental principle on how our government operates.

I know what you didn't win... the genetic lottery. Same grandpa I mentioned working on the nuke in the 50s, that turned into the delta rocket series, also was chief engineer of the 3rd stage of the Saturn V. There's only 5 of them lunar surface, as confirmed by multiple countries... and a few people people who showed up to grandpa's funeral that actually rode on top of it for ~230k miles

Your grandpa was part of the coverup. Duh.

Calm down, he is just trolling. Every sane person knows we made it to the moon.
BO and Dynetics had shite offerings, nothing more than a modern iteration of what NASA did in the 60s. Very little advancement for 50 years ago technology evolution. Pure money grab of taxpayer $$$.
Hell even New Glenn looks like a silver bullet vibrator. Bezos has issues

Blue Origin also argues the decision extends SpaceX's "monopolistic" control in space exploration.
This is rich coming from Bezos. frick that dude. I thought he was all about “the best company win”. He’s just pissy that Elon has a better product and spacex is actually making money.

You realize that the SpaceX HLS looks identical right? Giant penis shaped capsule with a door towards the top. If the elevator that takes them out has the slightest error they can’t even get back in it. SpaceX got preferential treatment and others called them out.

It is not preferential when you are the only one to meet or exceed requirements and for a cheaper cost.

Billionaires fighting over government checks. I guess they really aren't that much different than poor folks.

Scary how skillset and character have taken a backseat to "diversity" as a measurement for success in today's world. Today's
liberalism is truly a disease.

Yeah, it's like how the hell could they send guys to the moon 50 years ago when the moon is 230,000 miles from earth and through a radiation belt. But nowadays they only send astronauts to the international space station that is 254 miles away.
“Radiation doses measured during Apollo were significantly lower than the yearly average of 5 rem*** set by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission for workers who use [112] radioactive materials in factories and institutions across the United States. Thus, radiation was not an operational problem during the Apollo Program. Doses received by the crewmen of Apollo missions 7 through 17 were small because no major solar-particle events occurred during those missions. One small event was detected by a radiation sensor outside the Apollo 12 spacecraft, but no increase in radiation dose to the crewmen inside the spacecraft was detected.”

SpaceX will be just fine. Hell, Elon will probably put people on Mars before Bezos gets a rocket to orbit the earth.
