Normally I'd be more excited about a moon mission, but I'd vastly prefer if any other nation was doing it. Can't really care about it when the US is bombing civilian bridges in Iran and then bombing the first responders (and as of today, apparently announcing genocide. Not their first time, I guess).

@64bithero @Gargron just a reminder the US isn't doing this alone.

@ikuturso @64bithero @Gargron this is a human endeavor, not an American one. 💖

@Recently_Coco @ikuturso @64bithero @Gargron doesn't look like it when you see all the USA flags on every sleeve, every EU-made rocket part and just plastered all over it like kitsch

@saxnot @ikuturso @64bithero @Gargron yeah 😞

Sad to see the efforts of so many people squashed and hidden.

@Recently_Coco @ikuturso @64bithero @Gargron international collaborations are sadly breaking down
i think the successor to the ISS is supposed to be from a private company or something? How sad!

@64bithero @Gargron How about none? There's no reason to. Anything can be done by automated probe.

@Hammerwell @Gargron humans in space has done very little to move the needle forward this is true.

I’d love another voyager esque project or even a rover.
