Former NASA Astronaut: Elon Musk Is Advancing Faster Than We Ever Did During the Apollo Program

Former NASA astronaut: Elon Musk is advancing faster than we ever did during the Apollo program.

“Elon is all about making things happen as quickly as he possibly can. I think that's also something that can probably be good for our country.

I think that sometimes NASA is a little slow and a little bureaucratic with how they proceed.

I'm anxious to see what happens in the next several years. Elon's rocket is the biggest one ever built so far. It's bigger than the Statue of Liberty. To lift all that mass into space is absolutely incredible.

He's taken steps way faster than we ever did in the Apollo program to do things like this. So, it's a very exciting time for anyone who follows space.

It's important to understand that these are tough jobs. These are technical jobs that require people to not make mistakes. And so, you need to have the best possible people doing that work.

I hashtag almost every day, never bet against Elon Musk. And so far, he's proven me right.”
