Thanks for the news. I don't think this plan is executable.

I quite agree with you.

First off, I see a LOT of stuff that I had not heard anything about before now, starting this year. Kind of fast moving for NASA, unless they have something in mind from an external vendor that they can use to be the new equipment.

Beyond that, I don't think the budget is yet in place, and given the machinations of the US Congress, I don't know that NASA will all of a sudden get fully funded for this plan any time soon.

I see the "silver lining" as I think they said in the article: At least now there is a Plan that can be debated.

An ambitious plan but the way things have gone in the last few years, I imagine Space X will have people on the surface before Boeing has finished testing their new rocket.
