    Their cowardice is palpable. If only NASA could run experiments so that we could understand how the concept of fear-based self preservation eliminates any semblance of courage when faced with even the smallest threat to their ill-defined paradigm of manhood.

    In a parallel universe where we have a functioning federal government, I’d imagine something like this would be worthy of a grant or two.

      You’re significantly underestimating how many Chud engineers NASA employs. The agency that was founded by Nazis refugees has always had a shit history on race politics, cinema hagiographies produced decades later notwithstanding.

      In a parallel universe where we have a functioning federal government

      One of the biggest jokes of the US depiction of the Space Race was how many times we got our asses drubbed by Russians with less money, manpower, and educational resources, simply because our administration was so cartoonishly incompetent. We have an obscenely wealthy federal government that can afford to fuck up on the scale of trillions of dollars and still come out ahead.

    Imagine dreaming to fly to space only to be denied having it because you also cared about the rights of indigenous people.

    What happened to indigenous people and women? I swear I saw one just an hour ago so it seems like they still exist. Maybe not?

    I am sure all of them have the skills set and accounts to spend all day for this…

    Headline is hyperbolic

    This is definitely the most important thing for the country and for human space exploration as a whole.
