Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What or who do you hate but everybody else seems to love??

gotta love a good space exploration story. (I know they cost zillions but without them no GPS, and countless other benefits...)

Not sure my life is improved by gps... ànd I have no teflon. Countless benefits?

Concentrate on fixing the problems on earth, and stop the thieving super rich having their vanity projects.

Space exploration beats war as a driver of technology. And it might come in handy if a large lump of space debris heads right for us, or in mitigating global warming once it progresses too far for a terrestrial solution.

Love space travel

Cried when the binned the shuttle

Love fast planes

Cried when they binned Concorde

At the end of my life it feels like we will have moved backwards

Mitigating global warming? A giant untested space mirror type thing as a more appropriate solution than a combination of planting trees, farming in an agroecological fashion, ending the use of concrete and N fertiluser, reducing pointless travel, and ceasing the endless consumption of crap? Yeah, obviously.

This space crap is a distraction. Endless progress is distraction. Technology is not the answer.

But I suspect humans would vote for uber machismo, F1, fast motorbikes, war planes, big guns and space rockets, and a quick tech fix over a balanced functioning ecology that we were simply part of.
