Costello questions the need for government support in commercial space launch risks.

My experience has been too often when you leave it up to the airlines... it doesn't get done if it is voluntary.
We must use this opportunity to learn from these failures and plan for the future.
I thought it was crazy to try and design a multibillion-dollar system using taxpayers' money without involving those who, in fact, would operate the system.
if we leave it up to the airlines to regulate themselves, it will not happen.
