In the 1960s we built a moon rocket. Single purpose built for going to the moon and back.
Today, companies are trying to build general purpose ultra heavy lift rockets and slapping a moon mission on them. Starship? Not a moon rocket. New Glenn? Not a moon rocket.
Its like living in an RV and saying "living in it isnt the problem, its the plumbing!" Plumbing is an easy solved problem for fixed houses. You've only made the situation harder on yourself by trying to be dual purpose
Hmm good point. I think with today's technology there CAN be more they can do in terms of making it multi-purpose, and hopefully they can work out all the kinks. I would love see us back on the moon in the next decade or so.
