He has to know that if and when the Starship-Superheavy combo enters service the SLS will look increasingly ludicrious. I do remember seeing a pic of a proposed Blue Origin manned capsule on Pinterest. Two New Glenns, one for the lunar lander and one for Capsule would make for a nice private Moon program, all largely funded by govt money. But if Musk actually pulls off Starship/Superheavy, that will make New Glenn redundant, too. Is Bezos plotting with Senator Shelby to try to screw Space X once again? Or does he think he has and inside track with the USAF?
