Should Musk take display landers to the moon as a mock payload?

Hilariously enough, Dragon/Falcon is NASA's most flight proven stack right now, so an extension of that is the safe, iterative design, while Starship is the next-gen research project.

>I thought Gateway was an international project like the ISS?
Everyone but the US and Russia on the ISS is there for a participation trophy. With Gateway even the Russians are also rans. There's a reason the State Department calls NASA "space diplomacy."

Fining the contractors is the obvious first step, then I would not build on SLS beyond Block 1B and declare it a 'safety net' to provide more funding for competing rockets to be developed in the private industry that we would offer later Artemis/SLS projects too if they prove a more financially and scientific advancement than SLS.

Gateway can remain but I would open module extension with immediate effect to private corporations to create an orbital base for future moon bases.

Here's your Artemis mission bro.
