Then there is #JaredIsaacman, the #billionaire entrepreneur who led 2 private missions to orbit on #rockets made by the company of his close associate, the onetime #Trump ally #ElonMusk. Trump tapped Isaacman to be #NASA administrator soon after the election, but withdrew the nomination in May after #Trump supporters objected to Isaacman’s previous donations to Democrats.
One thing about rockets:
They pollute. A hell of a lot.
Huge amounts of Co2 + water vapour is delivered right up the uppermost atmosphere where it starts interacting as a greenhouse gas immediately.
Solid fuel boosters are the worst: The chlorine in their hydrazine fuel is a potent ozone layer depletant. However, soot also depletes ozone, and that is produced in ample amounts from methalox (spacex) exhausts.
Ozone layer is thinning again.
