> led by Gwynne Shotwell at SpaceX
I love Gwynne as much as the next guy and she it clearly, but the team is lead by Elon.
Gwynne helps keep the company running, makes the deals and has relations with DoD and NASA, makes sure nothing gets missed and so on. Flat out, Musk is the leader, he says what development happens, when and how. He decides how much money is spent and so on. Gwynne has said as much as well.
It seem like people love to use Gwynne to say 'SpaceX is successful despite Musk', you didn't quite go so far, bu
t still. This line of reasoning just doesn't work.
If Starship is successful, many people will be able to afford to go to space.
