No, it's a joke lighten up Francis

When did he say that?

Wait

The current state of society is worse for woman than what was 400 years ago because of a minority of losers that like Andrew Tate and never leave their basements?

Your are delusional

Elon musk is a tech corporation billionaire with a god complex, of course he probably thinks he's going to start the expansion of humanity into the outer solar system in a decade's time. Though, realistically he probably said such things for publicity more than anything.

Okay. You're saying what we have is good enough to take into space. I think you're insane, but it's your life. Um, your number 3 is really really inaccurate. You just don't hear about it in western society as much. Because we're supposed to be above it. Don't believe all you don't get to hear.

Also, the manosphere is actually worse. Go snd actually look at whats being said out there. Think Nazis and dehumanization. There's a reason this is the loneliest generation ever. For instance, the mild thing I saw today was "women shouldn't go on dates if they aren't expecting to have sex." That was mild. Take s look i to that piece of the Internet snd tell me we're ready for the cold equations. :-)

Oh boy that’s a shocker and it’s bad

And I think people sincerely overestimate the benefits of space manufacturing.

I also think people sincerely underestimate the challenges and expense involved in retrieving commercially useful amounts of material from asteroids, or of using those materials in situ for space-based manufacturing.

Achieving inexpensive launch capability with Starship, if possible, only scratches the surface of what needs to be in place to do any of this stuff.

Maybe a station on the moon..but not Mars. That's a 1 way trip to hell.

It's NASA's fault, they should've outlawed the asteroid so it won't be able to come.

Really?!! But Elon musk said in a decade. He’s lying?

Orbit makes the most sense imo. Maybe the moon but Mars would be a mission and would probably be like the moon missions of the 70’s & 80’s. Don’t go back for decades after it’s done once

Perhaps we put this topic to a more scientific way: What food should be eaten on Mars? I mean there is less gravity and if we eat as we would eat on earth our bodys will become very fat very soon. So what's the diet for mars?

1. Manosphere - Still better than when woman couldn't vote, or have jobs, or go on the street alone.

2. Religious political conflict - Remember when towns used to hang witches? Me neither, that happened 300 years before I was born.

3. Political torture - Rare in western societies, in comparison to the medieval shit we had

None of what you say comes then close to how bad shit were lol

I’d be surprised if they made a spaceship capable of taking people to mars in the next 100 years

And now we have the manosphere, religious political conflict in America, misogyny across the world, political torture, scientology, rednecks. Brexits...

Go away LoL. We have plenty of atrocity today. I'm a 61-year-old man, and the idea of you telling me that we're much more civilized now is just whistling in the effing dark. We still do bread and circuses, and that was coined in Roman times. Stop making me laugh, it hurts too much. Sheesh.

Are you suggesting that China did not send the ballon?

What the negative Nellie's replying are missing was demonstrated in a fictionalized version in " The Martian," written in 2011 IIRC, and IRL by NASA's best projections 10 years ago. The pace of change was vastly underestimated by sci-fi authors and our best engineers.

SpaceX is planning 2 launches per week this year. China has become the #2 space power. There's a subtle race to create a long term moon base. Blue origin is saying they can do cheap lunar energy and construction.

I'm a space angel and I'm seeing billions of private capital flow into projects that will support lunar and Martian exploration and services. I was pitched 3 times last year with asteroid mining projects.

I'm not saying I know who will win or what the wins will look like. There will probably be more failures than successes, but a lot of people are putting ever increasing resources and brain power into a space economy that is moving beyond GEO.

It's probably a Chinese spy meteorite

Moonbase + Mars Landing + Numerous unmanned missions to planets/moons + Bigger telescopes in space + Billionaire tourists

I wish I agreed with you. Untill humans stop all the short-term thinking, we're fucked. I expect it will take war or a significant die back for the wakeup call.

Meanwhile, you are overestimating our technical capabilities. Reagan fucked up. And thus the space age is now instead of 30 years ago. But unless the sociology changes, the only thing we are going to export out of the atmosphere is war. Shrugs. I'm busy dying. I have zero stake in this anymore. I'm just telling you what I see. It won't be up to me. :-)

I was 10 when Apollo 11 landed on the moon. I thought ,yes we're doing space stuff now. Lookout Mars here we come. I didn't know we wouldn't be at least on the moon by now. Man was I waaay wrong.
