That’s why SpaceX is building the BFR.

How are they defining Deep Space?

I would have guessed that meant Intergalactic Space, but I’m pretty sure that’s not on our current “to-do” list.

If they mean going to Mars, that doesn’t seem all that Deep to me.

Of course, America was once focused on the old “Northwest Territory” which was basically Ohio. So sometimes terms change their meaning as you go further out.

...and Boeing’s rocket will be cheaper as they will have it mostly built in China.
