you know whats better than reusable rockets? not going to space
Going to space actually is important for a long list of reasons, has made humanity better and who knows, might even save it as we're on a crash course with this earth. I know, I know, saving it is easier and better, but interest in doing that can't be found
theres no actual reason more than curiosity. dont get me started on colonization of other planets
what do you even live for if curiosity is not enough of a reason to do something
maybe bc there are more important things to worry about on earth
put your phone down and start working the fields. you do not deserve anything that came out of space programs.
You know there is a thing called division of labour right?
We can have people working on multiple problems at the same time and various efforts might overlap and have a larger effect.
You are now aware of this concept.
Going to space can help us solve a lot of the problems we have on earth
