      True. We should just never change anything. The earth was better off when it was a sterile rock anyway.

    Valuable resources are what caused humans to travel to the corners of the globe, it will mean permanent human settlements in space. But when NASA made it possible why is it corporations that will make the profits?

    More like interlOON
    Because they’re crazy if they think they’re going to be mining any thing from space anytime soon..
    Elon musk claimed we have a man on Mars by 20/20, here it is 6 years later and he can barely make it to low earth orbit.
    They don’t even remember how to build the rockets that got us to the moon the first time anymore.

    Anyone who thinks they’re actually going to get all that equipment into orbit, and then to the moon….. And it actually have it mine anything worthwhile, get it back up into space and somehow landed on Earth without it blowing up like a meteorite…. Is a sucker
    Which is exactly what these companies are looking for….. Suckers
    Just like all the people who are talked into investing trillions of dollars into ai…. only for the CEO of openai to outright say he’s going to need a government bailout.

    Yet people keep investing.

    Because the real business is, tell investors what they want to hear and they’ll give you their money.

    He even said it in this video. Material for fusion plants. Fusion, you know that technology that we’ve been 20 years away from for the last 70 years?

    We have screwed up this world so much so now we have to go screw up the moon and then other planets! They just better, not screw up the man in the moon image!

    Of course a very large supply of gold, may lower the value of it. It’s rarity is a big factor of its value: (some from it’s aesthetics) But then that may be offset by the costs of people getting there, staying there and transporting it back to earth. May even make it impractical…. ?

    There’s a movie about that staring Sam Rockwell where there’s clones of him all over the moon.
