I actually yearn for a transnational workers cooperative space company that collects startup capital from crowdsourcing and fundraising.
Would probably have to host the physical operations somewhere in the global south, as the big authoritarian nations would likely be a bit hostile to the idea of making any domestically-developed cutting edge orbital rocket engine technology FOSS.
And that’s what’s tragic about SpaceX. It built real technical wizardry on the backs of some of the most talented minds of a generation. Yet, what will the funds from this IPO be used for? To fund the company’s operations for years to come? No. It will be used to fund shitty AI development and to pay off the money Musk borrowed to buy Twitter.
