In the paper, we explain how the US used its control over the design of advanced chips to constraint China's tech development. Give it a look ! It's available in open access 👇👇

However, we probably did not emphasize enough the additional risks for states to become dependent on a single company for key space activities. This was made evident by Elon Musk's threats to decommission the dragon spacecraft following its public break-up with Trump.

Elon Musk threatened to decommission Dragon spacecraft. Here's what that would mean for NASA
Space science experts told ABC News SpaceX has been essential to NASA’s missions and the breakdown of a relationship would leave a hole that would be hard to fill.

At the time, we were primarily emphasizing the risks for states to loose public support associated with private companies. This is akin to celebrating Apple for creating the iPhone without recognizing that much of it was built on inventions funded by and built for the American government.

However, we warned in our conclusion that "increasing reliance of governments on private companies is that their contributions may become less visible over time as private actors gain more prominence. In many ways, SpaceX, not NASA, has become the public face of space exploration."

This exemplified a form of mutualist relationships where each partner could gain from the other. While public organizations benefitted from the flexibility and higher risk tolerance of private organizations, the latter crucially gained revenues, expertise, and technology from working with the former

In a recent article, @jfmorin.bsky.social and I argued that the rise of private space organizations like SpaceX was not primarily driven by ingenious tech entrepreneurs. At its heart, their rise was made possible by the support of public organizations like NASA 👩🚀
