It was a shame since they nailed the landing and then had the failure. I guess maybe 4th or 5th time is the charm.

On the private space flight efforts by billionaires?

Are there any such efforts by non-US billionaires?

Is it entirely ego-driven? Moving science forward?

I am absolutely certain it would've received lots of media attention if it was NASA, with people interviewed to complain about another government failure.

not get to all the independents. Neither will a retraction track. We are all looking at different baskets of news. We don't have a shared reality anymore. And people watch fox and get fooled.
