good point, but do the Russians have another Progress (which I am sure NASA is paying for at this point) ready?

SpaceX is going to dock with the ISS November 30th of 2011.

So really, NASA is irrelevant. We’ve got a space company that can already do everything that’s needed.

Now, it’s just a matter of getting things stepped up to go to the Moon again.

Good question, actually. Yeah, you do have a point, I was just "assuming" they had another one in stock and/or ready. I know it is dangerous to assume but I think it would be wise to have a second and third ready to go for "just in case."
