Why do you feel the EU couldn't buy flights on SpaceX rockets is they wanted to?
- MrSkelter 2y agoSpace X doesn’t have a working rocket capable of reaching the moon. Buying flights in hardware that doesn’t exist is just funding R&D. Europe doesn’t have any ambition to create a sense of pride by racing back to the moon. There is no reason to invest in a rocket for that. It’s not because Europe couldn’t do it if it wanted to. It’s just the cost would be high and the return very low. Europe sees the future of space as collaboration not competition.
