Asking from a point of ignorance, but are there major paradigm changes that are possible by having a "drydock" on/near the moon? Why is this seen as a major waste by critics? - Are we largely constrained in our ship design si

I don't see this decision using "other people's money" to repay student loans. From what I read in the article, the employee would earn match benefits up-to-but-not-exceeding normal limits for money they put in towards t
