Let's hope musk doesn't buy it.
There's nothing they need from Boeing. Dragon and Falcon are both proven platforms already. Boeing doesn't have much to offer that SpaceX doesn't already have a solution for.
They may have some good engineers still?
Those engineers are free to leave and go work for SpaceX instead. You don't buy a failing business division to get a few people and trash everything else.
Wouldnβt that be an anti-trust issue, since heβs already got SpaceX?
Just gotta wait a few months if his choice, Trump, gets into office :/
