It's obviously time to stop burning all that money on SLS, which costs over $2 billion per flight because it's not reusable. The sunk cost fallacy only hurts more the longer you run with it.
- Alupis 5y agoIs this even a problem anymore? I mean, we just threw hundreds of billions behind all sorts of congress-critter pet projects - what's $10 billion (or even $100 billion) for a few moon landing missions?
- nexuist 5y agoIt's important in the context of NASA's budget, for which $10b is a pretty significant hit which could be going to objectively more useful things.
- kilroy123 5y agoSure, but sadly that's not up to NASA. Congress insists on forcing them to keep this bloated jobs program in place.
- bluthru 5y agoIt makes sense to use up the old RS-25s but I'm sure SLS is not as efficient as it could be.
