So I see the moon missions are canceled.

Was this all just a big stunt for him to get more money for yet another gigantic Money Pit project with no actual deadline?

Or do they just really not want us to go to the Moon again with our modern-day 4K cameras, what are they hiding?

This is why everyone thinks SpaceX is the second coming of Jesus.
It's just clever marketing tactics.

I would bet that the "customers" for the Lunar missions never existed.

More like create 14 goals to soften the blow when you cancel the two only important goals slowly over time. Keep believing we're going to Mars, I'm sure that will end up just like the moon pipe dream.

We should have had permanent moon bases 30 years ago. It is long past due.

This post is so true it makes me sad. I was raised being told all these optimistic futures and warned about all the things that are getting worse now. Only all of the optimistic future shit is becoming more and more unreachable.

THEY GOT FORMOSAT'D TO BFR YOU MORON. God why do I keep seeing this moon missions """canceled""" = Elon a huckster thing posted.

it's the best choice given the focus on BFR, and not having to waste time and effort human-rating FH.

The Moon is clearly forbidden. The only reason that is not /x/ is we don't want a country / a group of countries to claim a territory, even in the name of science.

Why would we come back to the moon? What is there to do?
