The space race between Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos is entering a new era. Blue Origin, Bezos’ rocket company, is planning to soon launch a massive rocket that will compete directly with SpaceX’s reusable Falcon 9 rockets.

I wonder if either of these disgustingly rich assholes ever thought of trying to fix the climate issues here on earth? There has to be a way they could profit off that. (I know they would never do anything in a give-back show of appreciation for the country that enabled their grotesque wealth.)
Whatever happens, you, @nytimes.com, have culpability. You propped up and protected Trump. You are part of the fascists now, not a reputable source of information. I’ll never give you another cent. I hope many millions feel the same as I do.
I don't care about Elon or Jeff. I care about the millions of kids that go hungry in this country. I care about our elderly terrified of SS cuts. I care about the millions that suffer or die because of the facade that is US Healthcare (should be called managed cost analysis of worth of life).
There is no race when SpaceX is in a different stratosphere based on cargo size and orbital height. Bezos should focus on space tourism and leave cargo to spacex

The space race between Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos is heating up as Blue Origin challenges SpaceX’s dominance. Competition fuels innovation, pushing both companies to redefine the boundaries of space exploration and reusable technology.
Takeaway for young professionals: Don’t fear competition—embrace it. Rivalry sharpens your skills, drives progress, and opens new opportunities to excel.
Remember when we had a people’s space agency called NASA? One we could be proud of? Now we have these two Lex Luthor wannabes and I want them to both fail and stop stealing glory from our country. I don’t care about these two assholes or anything they think they are accomplishing.
Because government isn’t here to make a profit, it’s to provide a service. We don’t need to enrich the oligarchs and let private businesses do the peoples work of exploring space. We don’t need to help narcissists with their pet projects by using our tax dollars. Musk holds no allegiance to the USA
NASA has been contracting private companies since their inception. The Apollo lander was built by Northrop Grumman, the Shuttle built by numerous private companies. Again... SpaceX has saved NASA BILLIONS of dollars and has lowered launch costs by 20x https://ntrs.nasa.gov/citations/20200001093
Why donate to charities, support the homeless, or argue for gun control with your dollars? No aim to just make more money by working to privatize NASA!
How does this dick measuring contest play out w trump while these assholes try their hardest to curry favor/power w him? What could possibly go wrong 🙄
A rat done bit my sister Nell
With whitey on the moon
Her face and arms began to swell
And whitey's on the moon
I can't pay no doctor bills
But whitey's on the moon
Ten years from now I'll be payin' still
While whitey's on the moon
Maybe report Bezos' folly in the context of how many days he could end youth hunger in the US, or how much more health coverage his overworked employees could get instead.
Who’s got a bigger dick, Musk or Bezos? Could some paparazzo try and get them both in the nuddy and let the world compare them once and for all? It would save everyone an awful lot of bother
Boo to billionaires but this is a minor good because muskrat can’t be allowed to consolidate all government contracts and tax dollars into his personal bank account.
So, what does this mean for ULA and more importantly, for Starliner?
As I understand it, NASA keeps pouring billions into the failed Starliner program because they don't want SpaceX to be the sole provider. If Blue Origin actually starts flying, how does Boeing continue to suckle at the Govt teat?
It’s like a superhero movie and the villains are these dweeby, rich, insecure, misguided, a$$holes and they’re also the comic relief which is only funny if it’s a dumb film and not our actual lives. 😳 #ElonMusk #JeffBezos
The Age of Ego was upon their once troubled, but still more fairly adjudicated, land. Alas, no King could ever be judicated by mere men, His less than Divine orange followers.
