So, we can have an awareness of all such missions, wrapped up in one video and updated every 90 days or so. And then a series of videos detailing those missions, individually; with things like launch date, launch vehicle, flight path and timeline, science experiments and funding status.

Even Boeing who is not considered a startup is having difficulty with Starliner as well as SLS. Just going by statistics, it's not likely to be successful. Even RFA has had failures with test vehicles they intended to launch. Consider that they have never launched anything to orbit before. To have high-hopes for a new startup with no experience is admirable but unfounded.

New Glenn is a finished product just like Vulcan was on its first flight which was quite nominal as I recall. Starship by contrast is in development and a completely different rocket from New Glenn as the largest and most powerful rocket ever flown. Plus it is being designed to land and be reused multiple times. None of that is true with New Glenn so stop making that simplistic comparison!

Kamala irrationally HATES anything, Elon, based on some bizarre meme that equates money to selfishness, anti-communityism, sloth/waste, corruption, etc., all of which are opposite to Musk’s ethics AND conduct (unlike the self-righteous Dem’s).

      The total NASA budget is less than one half of one percent of the US budget! How is that expensive?
      NASA has launched numerous space telescopes into various near earth orbits which study the universe via different wavelengths of light thereby increasing our understanding of the universe which in turn can help us understand our own planet.
      Numerous probes have been sent to planets, asteroids and the sun over the last 5 decades with all of the planets having been visited by those probes.
