NASA is a government program, Space X is private enterprise first of all. And what exactly has incredible things has space Space X actually done?
One got us to the moon and back.
One has contributed an amazing amount of information about the universe to us.
One has made it cheaper by recycling rockets, which is not something amazing but largely driven by private enterprise wanting to create a service to gain a profit and return for investors.
They’re both chalk and cheese. NASA doesn’t have to do it for cheaper because they’re not about making profits. They’re not a company.
A better comparison would be to compare Space X to that other space company by that other billionaire.
