    This was pretty much inevitable since the news of the implosion came out. Who would trust them anymore? How would they survive the inevitable lawsuits?

      Not to mention, they lost their CEO and only sub.

        They do presumably have the cyclops and antipodes sub, but they can’t reach anywhere near the depths of the titanic.

          Well, the titan wasn’t to great at it as well.

            Yeah. You go from you’ll probably implode on the way down to you will definitely implode on the way down.

              Maybe they can take musk, bezos and zucc for a quick last trip?

                We still need starship to work. Give it 12 more months then do what you want.

                  I think starship will be fine without mister “I’m so rich I’m not paying taxes”. He’s a glorified idiot, not a rocket genius.

                    His wife stands to inherit everything from what I read. If that happens SpaceX could easily be sold off. Imagine Boeing being able to just buy and close down their prime rival in this sector.
