They did though, they massively cut costs of launching a rocket, which is again the real barrier for space exploration, especially commercially viable space exploration. It’s not clear that NASA could have done that seeing how their costs remained roughly the same for decades, but don’t take it from me, take it from NASA themselves:
Well the engineers at SpaceX are generally more responsible and more concerned with security than Tesla, if only because the hardware is so expensive. But yes, it could happen any of these days.
I actually am skeptical of nationalization. I think the free market is more efficient in most situations.
But if you think SpaceX is running circles around NASA, well that’s so ridiculous that I’m starting to doubt myself.

What’s your counter argument for saying they didn’t run circles around NASA?
All the explosions.
That’s bound to happen every now and then. At least it hasn’t happened with people inside.
If Tesla is any indication, it’s only a matter of time.
