They already do? SpaceX has been flying NASA astronauts for awhile already...
- sdfghswe 3y agoNo it hasn't?
- atonse 3y agoNot sure if you're actually trolling but will leave this here: https://www.nasa.gov/feature/spacex-dragon-launches-arrivals-and-departures/ https://www.nasa.gov/feature/spacex-dragon-launches-arrivals... It's so common, it's not even newsworthy anymore.
- sdfghswe 3y agoOh my, NASA is getting sloppy again :-( In the 80s standards declined and astronauts ended up dying. Afterwards NASA tightened up again. What you go a long time without accidents you forget the benefit of being meticulous with safety. I believe there's a name for this. You'll see, SpaceX is gonna get people killed, NASA is gonna commission an investigation, and find that NASA was sloppy by accepting SpaceX's sloppiness.
- panick21_ 3y agoIts pretty funny how you didn't know even the most basic thing about NASA. And then when somebody gave the most basic information you instantly jump to 'i know all about this and why it is bad'. Given that you didn't know SpaceX flew astronauts, it clearly you don't have the slightest clue about the standard for safety applied by NASA, how and why they work with SpaceX. You heard 'Musk' and jump to 'oh NASA is bad'.
- sdfghswe 3y agoIt's a heuristic. I'm right the vast majority of the time.
