To be honest I love the idea of the government handling space exploration but (saying this as someone who works directly for a government body) the government is just too slow and ineffective to get space exploration online in the timeframe needed for it to generate new technologies that would help the climate crisis.
It’s mostly because of funding and ineffective bureaucracy not lack of talent or capable workers, but it’s a problem nonetheless.

In a better world…
So streamline it and fund it, don’t farm it out.
