I love Tyson and that clip was moving and all, but I think space exploration would do better in private hands.
Imagine if they had kept on pushing forward after the moon landing, and all the money that has gone to our military instead went to NASA. We'd probably be clubbing on Alpha Centauri by now

man I love this alias, but who is itNAME AN AEROSPACE COMPANY THAT RECEIVES ZERO GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIES, LOANS, GRANTS, OR COMPARABLE FORMS OF PUBLIC SUPPORT, BROTHER! BUSINESS AND THE STATE HAVE BEEN COOPERATING ON SPACE EXPLORATION SINCE THE BEGINNING, DUDE! TOTAL PRIVATIZATION, AS A HYPOTHETICAL REALITY, IS LAUGHABLE DUE TO THE RELIANCE SPACE BUSINESS HAS HAD ON THE MATERIAL POWER OF GOVERNMENT THIS ENTIRE TIME, MEAN GENE!
AND THE IDEA THAT TOTAL PRIVATIZATION, AS AN INCENTIVE TO INNOVATE, PERFORMS BETTER THAN NATIONALISM, HAS ALREADY BEEN PROVEN WRONG BY THE SPACE RACE BETWEEN THE US AND THE USSR, JACK!
ASK YOURSELF ONE QUESTION, BROTHER! DO YOU WANT A COMPANY LIKE COMCAST TO HAVE DOMINION OVER SPACE, DUDE? OR DO YOU WANT REAL AMERICANS TO STAKE THAT BOLDEST OF CLAIMS, BROTHER?

well, i think im friends with this alias on steam so unless Daze23 has 2 steam accounts ()
It's hard for most people to justify spending billions in space, hundredths of millions of people on are starving...
I actually noticed that too. the thing is, that person was someone I friended from here, but I can't remember who. they had a different name steam name listed, but steam actually allows multiple 'aliases' on an account. honestly I never wanted to pursue it, because it's either the ultimate clue, or just some cat from here that stole that name to use on Steam
THERE WERE MULTIPLE MOON MISSIONS, THERE HAVE BEEN MANY SATELLITES PUT IN PLACE, THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE SPACE STATION MISSIONS, AND THERE HAS BEEN MORE THAN ONE MECHANIZED MISSION TO MARS, BROTHER! AND THOSE MARS MISSIONS HAVE BEEN UNEXPECTEDLY SUCCESSFUL, DUDE! WE'RE STILL GETTING DAILY FEEDBACK FROM MARS ROVERS, MEAN GENE! WE'VE SEEN A STREET LEVEL VIEW OF MARS AND VENUS THANKS TO AMERICA AND RUSSIA RESPECTIVELY, JACK!
AN ALPHA CENTAURI MISSION INVOLVES A MUCH GREATER DISTANCE, BROTHER! IT'S CERTAINLY POSSIBLE BUT IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME, DUDE! BUT IF THE HULKSTER CAN BODYSLAM THE TEN TO THE FORTY FIFTH POWER POUND ANDRE THE GIANT IN FRONT OF A QUATTUORDECILLION SCREAMING HULKAMANIACS, THEN ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, BROTHER!
how so? elaborate
best of luck.

I'm not saying private owned space companies like Bigelow Aerospace or Space X never took government money- why wouldn't they? Doesn't mean no one else could fill that void in the future, or even now. But the government does have deep pockets and they are very willing to spend. I am saying I the government lost its drive after the cold war and soon privatized space will pass NASA. For instance, if Dennis Tito pulls off that trip to Mars... And it would be a victory for all mankind if the ship said Axe, or Virgin, or Comcast. And they'd do it more efficiently too, I'd bet.
