SpaceX is nice because they aren't beholden to anyone. It's also a double-edged sword, because they cannot be compelled (outside of market forces) to focus on certain fields (radio-astronomy, for example). At the end of the day, no one can spend money on space exploration like the Fed can. NASA is about a lot more than sending people into space.This is why I'm glad for SpaceX, we have a private company not interested in the politics of space travel involved now.
