News about the moon always gives me a big what-if sense. Like the series “For All Mankind”. It is always with a big regret that I think of what could have been. But excitement about what will be in terms of space exploration. Is there any other explanation besides money and public support for why the moon and space stopped being interesting for governments?
Commander Reid Wiseman and his crewmates—pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch, and Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen—were named to the Artemis II crew on April 3.
“Hello, crewmate! What are you doing on this mission?”
“I’m the pilot. You?”
“I’m the Canadian.”
Sooo… the US is, once again, feeling threatened and is planning to send people to the moon to make itself feel better about it - just like last time.
I get that this is really cool and I love space too, learning about it is great.
But is this really what we should be spending our limited resources on?
US prints the reserve money of the world. They basically have unlimited resources. This is better than money spent to kill midlle easterns
The US has virtually unlimited resources, they just usually choose to spend them on military and corporate subsidies.
