I feel like you’re conflating Musks “goals” (occupy mars cringe) with the overall purpose of spacex. Just because Musk who literally only just purchased the company makes these out their promises he only does so to boost stock price for the company, but this doesn’t mean these are their main objectives. Spacex is literally a business with the sole purpose of selling boosters to countries with space programs like NASA. You should condemn the US government for not prioritizing space science in any capacity, but science = war and when you have Lockheed already hiring NASA facilities and scientists/ engineers to build war machines then there’s no incentive to really care about the science part.
