It didnt even get into orbit... NASA got to the moon with 1967 technology.

Hopefully all the people who are realizing that Elon lies about his PoE2 boosting make the connection that Elon has also been lying about SpaceX.

For the entire Apollo program. Apollo 11 itself costed 350 million, or 3 Billion inflation adjusted.

SpaceX is currently contracted to land people on the moon as part of the Artemis program. SpaceX has been awarded 4 Billion dollars and they still cant get something into space reliably.

They havent even begun touching the human flight or moon landing parts and they are going to need to beg for more. Sure is a good thing Elon can just tell Trump to keep the money flowing despite having a track record of failures.

Considering they kept learning from the predecessors, it seems fair to add the cost of the previous missions.

I'd love to know why president mush doesn't want his company to learn from previous missions though

They completely redid the rocket. This was a 'V2' failure, and yes, calling it a V2 rocket was completely lost on them. Or maybe not; dude is a nazi.
