Spacex is a scam, case and point, if the company would collapse without musk, it never had a viable business model to begin with. I’ll take my RKLB thank you very much
No, the company is firmly grounded in the leadership of Gwynne Shotwell. Elon sticks his dick in things and she does amazingly at keeping him from ruining too much.
There are significant concerns about the business side over the past few years, but if you think the rocketry innovation or Starlink are a scam… I’ll get you some grippy socks.
Spcx as a company is a massive AI business liability bolted onto a viable satellite internet business and an experimental but potentially successful rocket business. The former dwarfing the latter two in size. If they can decouple and let xAI die it can probably survive as a smaller company. If not, then it will likely, in my layman view, implode, and the satellite portion picked up by another company.
If not, then it will likely, in my layman view, implode, and the satellite portion picked up by another company.
The rocket portion needs picked up as well. Starlink satellites orbit inside the upper atmosphere and need replaced every 5 years or so, even when factoring in periodic boosts to their orbit from propulsion
If anything I would think confidence in SpaceX would go up without musk.
