Not Invented Here is a frequent slam used by entities facing unpleasant competition. They cannot take seriously a product or service, which they did not discover and develop. NASA is facing the NIH syndrome with SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket. Rather than welcoming the new propulsion system, NASA is doubling down on its Space Launch System, which will cost more to build and fire off than SpaceX’s machine. It seems the agency is living in the past and unable to accept that a commercial entity has beaten it to the finish line with a better and cheaper product. The Falcon Heavy will now go about its business of launching satellites and retrieving boosters for reconditioning and reuse. Meanwhile, Boeing, which is building the SLS, has much to prove that its giant candle will actually be better than the Falcon Heavy, which is here and working today. SpaceX has won the PR war and NASA is scrambling to catch up.
