>Btw I do not compare thrm to BO
BO has yet to make any real payload launches, or make the bug fixes that are required after said yet-to-be-completed launches. So you're definitely right; they're not really comparable past the point that they're both companies that want to launch shit into orbit around gravity wells.

Meanwhile, as BO contemplates what stardust tastes like, Spess Teslah is doing coke lines of it off the Defense Industry's ever-expanding rack. SpaceX has had numerous successes, failures, and the launch experience to actually shoot things into space reliably. This is unbelievably expensive, however, to do actual work and not just WANT to do something.

You're like those kids on /k/ who read a report from the Airforce and immediately run to 4chan to tell everyone how shitty the A10 is and how the fleet of them should be scrapped, despite the fact that it is a successful, efficient, and reliable vehicle that does its fucking job.

How possible do you believe it is that, with sustained effort, we could eliminate the suffering and ill-health associated with biological ageing by developing deliberate medical interventions to reverse the damage accumulated by the body over time as a natural consequence of metabolism?

Sorry about the clowns in this thread OP, they are probably just bitter nerds who don't want anybody besides other dorks to excel in their fields. If you really want to work for NASA, first brush up on high school math, then go to community college for two years, learn foundations of science and math and take Gen eds. After two or more years you want to transfer to a good reputable university with a good aerospace engineeering, mechanical engineering, or 3lectrical engineering program (those are all good majors to get work at NASA). All along the way you should seek experienced mentors who can guide you along the way and understand your goals, that will be the biggest help to you.

Keep in mind that the aerospace industry is fucking hard to get work in. I study aerospace engineering at one of the top 5 schools in the country and it's still very competitive. Best of luck bro, we're all gonna make it.
