| NASA just released a 311-page report about its only alternative to SpaceX. And it’s brutal. It classified Boeing's crewed Starliner test flight as a "Type A Mishap"… the highest possible failure classification. That puts it alongside the Apollo 1 fire, the Challenger explosion, and the Columbia disaster. And it leaves SpaceX in a category of its own. Here's how to claim SpaceX shares before the public listing. Back in June 2024, Boeing launched astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams to the International Space Station. The mission was supposed to last eight days. But five thrusters failed during the approach to the station. Helium leaks spread across seven of eight manifolds. The crew temporarily lost full control of the spacecraft. They made it to the station, but NASA deemed the capsule too risky to bring them home. The astronauts ended up stranded for a whopping 286 days. NASA had to call SpaceX to bring the crew home. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman just said the incident created a "culture of mistrust"… And that the most troubling failure was the decision-making and leadership behind it. The report described yelling in meetings, unprofessional conduct, and disagreements that spiraled while the crew was still in orbit. Boeing was awarded 4.2 billion dollars to build its spacecraft. SpaceX received 2.6 billion to build theirs. Boeing got 60 percent more money and still couldn’t fly astronauts safely. Meanwhile, SpaceX has now completed over a dozen crewed missions to the station without a single mission failure. It just launched Crew-12 last week. Boeing's Starliner is now grounded. NASA says it won't fly crew again until the root cause is found (and that cause is still unknown). That leaves SpaceX as the only proven American crew transport system in operation. The bullish case for SpaceX is getting bigger by the day. That’s why I’m claiming my shares now, months before the public listing. Here's how you can do so too. Ian
