i hope not, we have bfr and New Armstrong to look forward to in the early 20s. and hopefully a moon base at least.
Frankly only musk could achieve that.
NASA are horrific now....I read bringing Columbia home recently , in 2003 NASA planned to have launched sls several times by 2018....it’s not even physically built yet.....15 years ago Columbia broke up....it’s been half a decade since anything flew.
They are simply slow and inaffective now.
Space x is the only company or group making actual rapid progress....no one is anywhere near them now , blue origin haven’t even made it to orbit, lord knows what boing and lochheed Martin are doing save the occasional ula launch .....but that’s just building the same old rockets lifting rubbish 25T payloads still.
Space x ..... they are the ones to watch for sure, they are literally years ahead , first man on mars is defo them.
I’d be amazed at NASA flying anything before 2030 at their current rate of progress, let alone beyond LEO.
