I think recently the price to LEO has dropped to 4k per kg, so for an 80kg person would be $320,000. You're probably not an inert hunk of material so probably much more expensive than that

But of course! We’d naturally need a proper investor! We’ll even let you have one of our flags.

I mean people have probably been making "stick-henge" calendars for tens of thousands of years. Clever people who could predict seasons and astronomical phenomena would have been highly respected.

I can do it for you but I'm going to need 300k up front. You'll be put on a list for a while so you'll just have to be patient. Don't contact me, I'll contact you.

No, but for that kind of money I can get you enough drugs to send you to space.

There was no light pollution. They could see the bright stars unless they're really blind.

Or we are simply better at diagnosing eye issues and people are more aware of them and have better access to them

Yes! Their walk across the zodiac was definitely intriguing to our ancestors. However, the Planets, as well, seemed to have a discernible pattern that could be tracked. So, they were mostly dependable and unchanging in their motion.
The Planets' stubborn refusal to be where they were supposed to be is one of the great catalysts of the scientific revolution. Because they moved in ellipses, Kepler, I think, was the first to produce math that would table them correctly.
