The first thing I thought of after hearing about this trip was, great, how long till space gets effed up and trashed like Everest, with all the oxygen canisters, abandoned tents, etc.The way humans have destroyed nature here and are now finding such ✨innovative ✨ ways to spread the pollution into the wider universe should be studied. Never in the history of existence has one species been so focused on absolute destruction.
This vanity space tourism project is just hammering home the point that we're in a weird timeline where vanity trumps logic, and the environmental cost of this stupid flight is ignored because the positive PR they're getting is somehow more important.
You're far more diplomatic than I am!Loved every word of your post.
How deluded that she thinks what she did is like what other astronauts did, aka, paving the way for science. Did they give you any controls to work Gayle?? Any little jobs to do?? The only thing this is paving the way for is discount space trip lines like Jet Space Blue. I’m calling it first!!!
Hey Gayle how about matching funds for your little jaunt for STEM scholarships for girls and programs K-12??
Okay, thanks. I wasn’t the only one who made that connection.
And ringing that freaking bell??? The hell???
Okay admittedly I am a little sensitive on that since I rang the bell for chemo, radiation and HER2 drug infusions in the past year. But really, it’s not like you’re at my Walgreen’s that actually has a little bell at the register.
Look for the bit Josh Johnson did on this on YT. I did laugh really hard at his take on how the look on Gayle’s face reminded him of when his mother was teaching him how to drive. He had a great take on people who really need a decent 10 minute break …
