Well it's publicly traded, so wouldn't call it private. Also you're right about Nasa being a government ran program but it's pretty well known that the US spends a shitload for defense and other things instead of Nasa
It's called a private corporation because it is in the private sector, while the government runs the public sector. In my opinion the government should no longer be involved with space exploration because the private sector will do it more efficiently and at a cheaper cost.
By richest company, I think they mean market capitalization. And if that's the case, Apple is the richest company in the world, at over 700 billion market cap.
So they have a lot of cash, but they are just the one company focused on electronics. Have you seen the video about how large Samsung is? It's freaking huge.
What does size have to do with how rich a company is? Samsung is the 18th biggest company in the world, Apple is the 12th. http://www.forbes.com/global2000/list/
Lansing rivers on mats is kind of useless. Cellphones do help people communicate. Although, Samsung is now richer than apple. They have more than the 100 billion apple has stored up invested widely in many projects.
Yes they are. All their money is tied up in projects, assets and investments that make them surpass the 100 billion dollars apple has sitting not making more money. Samsung is by far richer than apple considering they don't just focus on laptops and cellphones.
You have no idea what you're talking about. Apple has plent of money tied up in projects. And, as of July 21, 2015, Apple's cash pile sat at 203 billion, not 100 billion. There are only 14 companies in the S&P 500 with a market cap larger than that 203 billion. It's a non-contest and you're wrong. Apple is far more rich than Samsung.
