Itβs almost like it was never about savings or efficiency.
GET THIS UNELECTED NAZI OUT OF OUR GOVERNMENT!!!
which one of them?
How does "Any and all of them" sound?
really good actually.
While passive, noncontrolling stakes from foreign investors are welcome, it is the Trump administrationβs position that adversaries like China use concealed investment strategies to obtain technologies, IP, and leverage in strategic industries.
I'm not an expert in international investment or intellectual property. How could a concealed investment strategy lead to obtaining IP?
"Hey Musk, we invested $5 million in your company. We'll invest 5 more if you give us some of your earlier rocket designs"
Which would probably be an ITAR violation as a dual use technology export (dual use as in it has military value) if not something more serious, hence the secrecy
Violating ITAR for 5 million dollars seems like it would be a irresponsibly reckless risk for SpaceX to take. And it's not like SpaceX are short on cash. That's like, 5 hours of Starlink revenue.
I pulled those numbers out of nowhere, it could be billions instead, and would've been going on long before starlink. China did make a lot of advances with their rockets in a time period that makes sense
