re: #73 goddamnedfrank

How goddamned desperate for one good news cycle do you have to be to needlessly gamble astronaut lives on a mission that essentially boils down to a joy ride? Tech has advanced a lot since Apollo 8, a human presence adds nothing to the scientific value of this flight. It’s purely a publicity stunt and one with an enormous downside if anything goes wrong.

And, guaran-fucking-teed, if this does happen and there is a LOCV (loss of crew and vehicle, such as with Apollo 1, Challenger, and Columbia), Trump will break records trying to put all of the blame on NASA.

Fuck him.
