NASA and Boeing strands people in space. Meanwhile, Elon is launching multiple missions a month. Anyone else notice the difference between public and private organizations?

Bill Nelson should have been fired a long time ago. If I had been in charge at the beginning of the program, I would have insisted that both companies work together on two different platforms while ensuring compatibility between them. No platform is perfect, and both companies should support each other during difficulties and system failures. Now is the time for Elon Musk to step up as a leader by making the program work as intended. He should propose a crew exchange during the return trip next year and encourage Boeing to identify the problems and get back to space
