  1. I like it. Now, are you saying a space policy that sucks less than the current “compromise” approach forced on us by our “wise and frugal” Congress? Cause that doesn’t sound like much of a challenge.

    I think that if aliens bent on preventing mankind from becoming spacefaring had somehow taken over Congress, they’d have to give up because they couldn’t find a way to possibly screw up our odds of achieving that goal more than Congress has already done.

And NewSpace in general which is the shortest path to space settlement.

    A space policy which is less vacuous

  8. Since sucking creates a vacuum, and a good space policy would put more people and capital into the vacuum, wouldn’t you want a space policy that sucked more?
