lol. what a joke of a person.
A bit of detailed research - not just reading the Guardian - shows that there is WAY WAY more to that story. And your statement, as written, is far enough off to be laughable.

I realize though, that you DO have a hard on for this guy, so...

How far behind is starship?

I know there were delays (2 years?)?

It's tasked with a purpose no design before has ever succeeded and gone to market.
Musk stated going into it that they might not make it.

They look like they are going to make it with what just happened.
The next version is already ahead of this one.

Apollo 1 (1/27/67) was a huge success, too.

So success is not new to NASA.
