I've seen so many like me who are over the moon about sending people over the moon.

I've also seen people who are meh about it, and even a few who hate it.

This is fine, whatevs, I don't get it but I've loved space since I was a toddler.

What is not fine is lashing out at those of us who are enthused. For some of us, it's a symbol of hope, something good, in this dark world right now. You don't like it? Fine. You don't like that we like it? Find a cork and stuff it. Don't yuck our yum.

Let people enjoy things. (Unless they enjoy harming others, in which case Houston, we have a problem.)

It is fine if the Artemis project isn't your cup of tea. Seriously. I don't get it, but you do you.

Don't hate on those of us who love this tea. Mute.

idk what you're seeing or hearing, but that's unfortunate

NASA always had amazing photographs to use as test prints for a large scale printing system, even back in the 90s. I don't have the anaglyph one from Pathfinder anymore.

@catbailey I grabbed all the NatGeos that were about space when I was a kid. My favorite centerfold was the Mercury ... dashboard(?) as the pilot saw it, periscope and all.. Same with the Gemini. I guess Apollo and later were too big for a centerfold, though.

Unfortunately, rats got at everything.

I used to dream of space travel, too.

Still do.
