But..the current space efforts are not about planning for mass extinction events etc...and lets be honest, our existing technology is capable of modeling our reaction to this incredibly unlikely event.
Nevertheless... im yet to see any significant positives for humanity from this folly, excluding lining the pockets and increasing the power of the super rich.
I appreciate your kind words. Im not here to judge who does more/less/better Im jusy hoping all people work toward a better world for all and currently the space industry is doing the opposite
