To go full circle, the guy in charge of satellites that measure sea level rise was looking to buy a house, and I got involved in the search. Along the way, I talked to him about launching his satellites using Elon's rockets (at the time, NASA didn't fly on SpaceX). Afterwards, that's exactly what he did, so the sea level measurement satellites fly on Elon's rockets.
That should be good for some more conspiracy theories from you.
