SPACEX NO LONGER NEEDS NASA, AND NASA'S LEVERAGE IS SHRINKING AS A RESULT

Summary from the TLDR Hardware newsletter

SpaceX no longer depends on NASA contracts to survive, while NASA depends heavily on SpaceX's rockets and capsules, which cuts the agency's negotiating leverage. SpaceX told NASA it will stop flying Crew Dragon by or before 2030 and has stopped selling commercial Falcon 9 launches for missions after 2028. That would leave NASA's ISS crew transport and station deorbit plans exposed.
