With SpaceX boosters better than what nasa has they may want to refocus for a bit on getting a new solid orbital rocket, and only work on atmospheric instruments. Put the moon and mars on the back foot for a while and shore up the base.

Are you saying NASA should work on a rocket? To me, that seems like the exact opposite of what they should do. It seems like a total waste of resources for NASA to try to recreate what already exists.
