they call them Boeing because they eventually bounce off the ground like boing
...there are no rules in space
That's objectively wrong
True, I head theres no takesie backsies in space
I mean, who's going to come after you and arrest you in orbit? ISS could declare a mutiny right now and NASA would be powerless until they ran out of supplies.
Once self-sufficient settlements are a thing, that'll be an even bigger question.

That happened in a British colony once, the mutiny got totally out of hand.
Actually, that may have happened a bunch of times with British colonies...
You could look at it another way... Britain kept its investments. The colonies all use English common law, they pay their debts, and they stopped dumping tea into the harbor
They get their best people from the 737 production and engineering for rocket building.
Gotta keep those shareholders happy!
This meshes with the news that Boeing is run by accountants, not engineers, like it used to be.
