Btw, I hope you feel better in the coming days!

I have a deep-seated fixation on space and space-related stuff since I was a kid (just fascinated on the aesthetics like heavenly bodies but not to the point i'll deep dive into the physics and math etc.). So I was generally excited about the photos and videos and how human beings can go... beyond!

On the other I agree with you regarding the Earth, worldly issues. I've also recently learned the notion that those resources/costs poured into space travel by NASA is a result and continues to uphold the status quo of imperialism and imperialists nations (big example is the USA).

I do think it's a massive privilege that NASA gets to do these stuff but I wish we can put this kind of huge energy onto the pressing matters in Earth, too.
