Re: The Challenger disaster - 40 years ago yesterday

[(Anonymous)]

It's an unpopular opinion, but fuck space travel. What has it actually done besides pollute the environment, waste billions in government money, create an excess of space debris? Be a dick measuring contest, get trillionaires dicks hard? Really. All extra planetary missions should be scrapped.

I don't disagree but do wonder how old you are. 40 years ago it was a big deal. There was no Google street view. Satellites were 6 foot mechanisms in your backyard. Space stuff was novel.

I think science and exploring and getting to know the universe has value. But I do think that we should no longer be spending a whole lot of government money on it, there are far more important things to spend government money on (though I still say it is better than spending on military). Let private companies do it from now on.

Those private companies are subsidized...

Re: The Challenger disaster - 40 years ago yesterday

[philstar22]

Sure. And I'm okay with that. Science is important, and we've learned a lot from space. Subsidizing it is different from the huge amount it costs to actually be the ones making the rockets and going to space. I'm fine with some spending on it.

we wouldn't have cell phones without space travel. we wouldn't have a lot of technological infrastructure without space travel. are you young? do you know nothing of the shuttle program, the Apollo and Mercury missions before that? you probably don't know about any of the tiny discoveries made by astronauts in space before the ISS (and even without Skylab or MIR) which have in turn made strides in multiple sciences which have in turn changed our human lives. "Space travel" isn't just Musk beating off in his rocket, grow up and read a wiki or two.

Not a fan of science or technology, huh? You should get off the internet since it’s a byproduct of space exploration that relies on “space debris.” And whatever you do, don’t get a mammogram, colonoscopy, MRI, CATscan or PETscan. If you get cancer, you need to avoid almost every treatment. If you get a cavity, make sure you have them use silver for the filling. Oh, you also need to avoid bottled water, light bulbs, synthetic fabrics, air conditioners, and refrigerator and freezers produced after 1972. All of those things rely on developments and discoveries made in direct support of space exploration.

Re: The Challenger disaster - 40 years ago yesterday

Yep, it was a huge driver of technological innovation! The other big driver of technological innovation is war, and frankly I'd rather have the space travel.

Re: The Challenger disaster - 40 years ago yesterday

I get where you're coming from. We have so many problems on earth, is it worth spending untold amounts of money to explore space when there are people who are suffering on earth? But at the same time, I think space travel is genuinely one of the most awesome things people have done. So, it's something I feel two ways about.
