many computer and web billionaires have already invested in their own space companies (PayPal's Elon Musk, Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Microsoft's Paul Allen, etc.) so, WHY don't Apple start (also) its own Space company?



as explained in this article: http://www.ghostnasa.com/posts/027applenasa.html



thanks to the iPod and iPhone success, Apple has over $18 billion cash in its pockets (that exceeds the annual NASA budget!) so, it has enough money to found a Space company, or (maybe) buy NASA... and call it "NASA 2.0" or "i-NASA"...

    Great idea. Make a mission to Mars and a manned colony there. And make it profitable. Then you'll have billions, and billions of funding go into it, not just from Apple. As greedy and evil as (some) corporations are, that will be the key to manned exploration and colonisation of the solar system.

    yes, the Space will soon become very profitable, but the big companies must start now to invest in this technology



    I'm trying to do that with my NewSpaceAgency but, clearly, it's million times easier for companies like Apple that have so much cash

    In Soviet Russia, you don't fly to space. Space fly to *you*.
