    1. @andrewtbhamApr 2014· in “SpaceX Successfully Soft-Landed Booster Rocket in the Atlantic”

      I watched a senate hearing where Elon Musk squares off with the ULA. It's awesome. One great quote is where the ULA says Space X can't handle the missions. Elon responds. If our rockets are good enough for NASA, they are good enough for the Department of Defense. this video

    2. @taf2Oct 2016· in “Implication of sabotage adds intrigue to SpaceX investigation”

      This is good context this video for the tension between ULA and SpaceX - it's also nice before an election to checkout the hearings on CSPAn to get a better understanding of the type of people being elected...

    3. @josefrescoMay 2014· in “SpaceX granted injunction in rocket launch suit against Lockheed-Boeing”

      For those interested in this topic, I found the following Senate hearing to be quite entertaining: this video Elon basically going head-to-head with Michael Gass from the ULA and holding his own quite well.

    4. @arjunnarayanApr 2014· in “SpaceX Successfully Soft-Landed Booster Rocket in the Atlantic”

      Elon Musk explains it in this answer to Senator Shelby. The whole committe hearing is interesting, but your specific question is answered at 53:02 in the video, which I link here: this video

    5. @justin66Oct 2014· in “Orbital Sciences Antares rocket explodes after liftoff”

      > As for politics and sanctions against Russia - this is quite different subject, almost completely unrelated. Considering the funding for these missions comes from the U.S. Congress, the matters seem pretty tightly coupled. It was sure a topic of conversation when Elon Musk and Michael Gass (ULA CEO) testified before congress: this video
