The Cato Institute asks if NASA can compete with Spacex. After the last few posts, I think the answer is becoming obvious to me. Two of the more significant developments (in my opinion), the VASIMR and the Space Cannon, are private initiatives. Throw in Spacex, and it looks like NASA is out of a job. Well, maybe that's going a little bit too far, but it gives you the general idea, does it not? NASA isn't at the forefront anymore. Neither in cost nor performance. I'd say again that NASA should go into survival mode if they want to hang around. Otherwise, they will go away. The world will see to that.
