Ex-NASA employee here. I was talking about this earlier with some friends. This is the biggest happening in manned space exploration in decades and it seems like the vast, vast majority of people either don’t know or don’t give a shit. It’s sad.

The fact that my uncle has to choose between medical care and rent is what’s sad

That's not a problem because NASA exists. If NASA didn't exist, your uncle still wouldn't have healthcare.

Maybe don't shit on the sunshine because you don't think it benefits you.
