Are traditional philanthropy efforts actually taking money from the poor? Former UK Member of Parliament Rory Stewart breaks down why many global development projects waste money on programs that don’t work.

It’s so refreshing to listen to an intelligent woman talk about real science instead of all these woke, liberal feminists who only talk about diversity, mono culture the patriarchy etcetera, and their feelings about it.

Shame on you, find faith, give glory to God and get right in your hearts. Stop lying lol nobody’s going anywhere you try to tell us, you can’t even get to the moon. High earth orbit only, your all liars.

No drone bot to Titan for another 15 years? Space exploration is moving sooooooo slow. I say let’s call back our naval fleet from the shores of Venezuela and use that money to explore Titan allot sooner.

Because nothing lasts on Venus for long, a few hours maybe. We’ll be living on multiple planets and moons before anything man made will explore the surface of Venus like we do on Mars now. Just ask the old Soviets how their probes fared.

As a retired engineer who took a planetary geology class in college, I find his is all very exciting, BUT I’m more concerned over our utter disregard for the health of our home planet. What difference will it make if we learn about the solar system only to become extinct here?
insanity4224
September 22, 2020 at 12:47 am
ronkirk50 I agree to a point but for kids to grow up seeing our technology landing on other planets this is incredibly inspirational. So many people were inspired to become scientists as a result of the moon landings. And innovation in general, especially the really tough projects pushes the boundaries of what we can do to be more efficient in general. I think we can engineer our way out of destroying our home but we need to be socially capable of getting along globally.. that’s our biggest problem.
