On this episode, which I have recorded for a third time, covers the latest on SpaceX's Starship testing as well as some news on the costs of the Commercial Crew Program for NASA's options on sending humans into space again, without the aid of Russia and their Soyuz capsule (which costs $87 million per Astronaut).
I also talk about my thoughts on WHY SpaceX is so disruptive in the Space Industry and how they make it possible to be immune to the ever-changing winds of government funding and political parties in charge.
I have recorded this multiple times because so much happened on the same day of recording, we just had to scrap it and start over. With Thanksgiving coming up next week, we've got a longer episode to help tide you over until December, when I will be in Florida capturing the CRS-19 mission for SpaceX thanks to the NASAsocial program. Enjoy your holiday America! Stay safe everyone - we'll see you in December!
If you'd like to learn more about the history of the Space Program get these two books! I've read both and highly recommend them. Here are some affiliate links for them - and we get a small portion from Amazon when you buy and it helps support the podcast. Chasing the Moon by Robert Stone and Alan Andres https://amzn.to/2L318l1
