If some idiot breaks every rule like with the submarine, maybe they'll get one up there. And then kill everyone in it.
They can get their nephew who's good at the "space games" to pilot the ship too!
Cheap bastards won't even chip in for a decent HOTAS or a hall effect modded elite controller I bet.
I would not trust a vanilla ksp player to pilot a rocket, an RSS/RO/Principia player on the other hand
Since it’s going to be rich clowns that make the trip up there, I’m fine with both happening.
We could get one of those big wine presses, dress it up like a rocket and put the ultra rich on there 'ok everyone hold on tight, you'll be blasting off to that super exclusive space hotel as soon as soon as you press that big red button...'
We can spend the remaining money on public services and social infrastructure.
Can we send Musk?
He wants to go to Mars. Hopefully he will stay there. And run out of air.
I think he just wants to send other people to Mars.
And it's possible that he really just wants to send military and commercial satellites into orbit but to dangle the promise of Mars as marketing.
This will inevitably happen one day, and yeah it could happen for 2027 I guess.
