This week, Elon Musk’s SpaceX successfully launched its 100th Falcon 9 rocket since 2015 on a Starlink satellite mission! The launch tempo increases even as Musk test launches Starship prototypes eventually aimed toward creating an inhabited city on Mars. And this space boom shows no signs of crashing.

Bill, we went to the moon with slide rules. We succeeded because in that day and age, NASA only hired the best and brightest engineers and scientists. After we got jaded with the moon, the US Government went along with the “affirmative action” movement and then we had problems keeping simple the Space Shuttle in space. I seriously doubt that Elon Musk hires any but the best and brightest engineers and scientists for SpaceX. That is certainly a contributing factor to the SpaceX success.
Diversity only works when the diverse pieces are alloyed together to make something stronger. Otherwise, what you have are impurities which weaken the object.
A merit based system is best for a results based outcome.
A special interest group based system is best for special interests. Which have nothing to do with results.
No, no, I love having you, Zo.
What happened to Scott?
Lost his voice, I think. Nothing too serious.
Thanks, RSAE.
To a speedy recovery..
Someday, I hope to be successful enough that I can have my own theme music, too.
If I could invest in SpaceX, I would. Starlink IPO will likely make him the world’s richest man pretty quickly. I suspect they will surpass 10,000,000 users very quickly. There are very few people I know who wouldn’t leave their ISP if they had a second choice in their area.
Good idea, I’m in!
Off topic, but where do we go to watch the live recording of Bill’s MB2A?
Steve, your opening comment reminds me of a great line from Serenity: “Tell me again about the part where Jayne gets beaten up by a girl, because it just doesn’t get old!”
