Help save planetary exploration
#68
I imagine the first caveman to develop a bow and arrow was called an idiot by all his kin who were just fine with spears and handaxes. I can't believe how many people here think space exploration is a waste. The only difference is in scale.

The "let's fix Earth first" argument is bullshit. If we can (eventually) move our species off the planet, or at least the industrialized cultures, you know what that means? Earth will have a chance to recover. The third-world countries, meanwhile, will have an opportunity to grow, and industrialize in tandem with the lessons we've learned from the mistakes we've made, and create a society that can potentially respect nature.

The funding argument is bullshit. How many professional athletes today are making millions a year to play a fucking game? Those dickbags can live with a pay cut, considering they're still getting paid to play a game.

You know what putting a colony on the moon or on Mars will do for us? We'll be forced to develop newer, more efficient tech. From the moon, we'll be in a better, significantly more efficient position to both colonize Mars and observe our universe (not having an atmosphere helps greatly with that stuff). That'll help Earth far more immensely than sitting around and bickering about how to "fix" things. There will always be dissenters, people will always fight and disagree. We need to be moving on in spite of them, not sticking around because of them.
