As seen in 90 miles:

 

The Apollo program  sent several three men teams across the space and to the moon with less computer power that you have in your cell phone.

“But Miguel! They are doing advanced technology! They are even  retrieving the rockets for future use!”

Rednecks have been doing that already with portapottys and nobody seems to think they need billions in government subsidy

Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

  1. The only reason I support this is selfishness.

    I would love to go into space but I’m fat and not a Navy SEAL with an MD and an super over achiever or a Senator so ill never be a NASA astronaut.

    When I was a boy in the 1980s only millionaires and billionaires had cell phones. When I went to college in 2001, I got a cell phone. When I graduated in 2006, they had gotten rid of dorm room phones because every incoming freshman had a cell phone.

    I’m hoping that in 10 to 20 years space flight becomes so cheap that I can book an orbital launch for the same price as a first class cross country flight.

    Then I’m going to go on a space walk and give the NASA astronauts the double bird as I float past them.

    You will need a COVID-192 Vaccination Passport. 😀

Only one rule: Don't be a dick.
