Owned by corporations, apparently.

Musk is vying for government contracts, and it doesn't take a genius to see that if he's put in charge of "government efficiency," he's going to turn NASA's research and engineering into skeleton crews. I can guarantee it won't be Blue Origin picking up the slack after NASA is no longer able to create spacecrafts.
