Edit: Also the people in the press should learn the difference between Space Oddity and Life on Mars. FAKE NEWS!

Was discussing the launch at lunch and had to explain what a huge moment it was for humanity. It's history.
Commercial space flight is viable. Space X can start charging firms to put their satellites into space and whatever else (tourism?). That frees up NASA to do bigger and better things.

I've been seeing "yeah but there are still poor people" comments.
These people have broken souls.

I'm sure each of those people are out there fighting poverty as they type.

Also, if elon had put all that money into "poverty" we'd still have poverty. We'll always have poverty. Might as well test ways to put them into orbit.

Typical capitalist who doesn't get it. It's the 1% who should be paying to end poverty, not "normal people". We earn our money, they don't. The government should force them to pay 75% of their wealth as taxes.
Or something... There's no logic there or knowledge based upon fact and historical precedence, so it's difficult to role play. I just know their argument is something like: poor people are oppressed, rich people are evil, and the people who sit on their keyboards and preach about this stuff are the real heroes.

I still say more money should be going into educating people the difference between Space Oddity and Life on Mars.

Trump wants to privatize the ISS.
Funding runs out in 2024, and he wants corporate America to jump in and take over. Apparently, NASA does too.
Opposition are already screaming about how much money we've spent on it, and thus, we can't walk away. I don't think they understand that NASA wants to move forward, not stay stuck in low orbit.

This seems like the break-through where we learn that Earth is actually a prison we are reliant upon.
We'll need some specific proteins/aminos acid or we can't survive long-term in space. Basically like the Jurassic park story line, but for humans.

We'll learn to simulate it.
I'm betting they discover that the lack of gravity is the culprit behind the changing DNA. And possibly the lack of sunlight?
