Having a "stupider people have done this" attitude about the things you want to do can open so many doors

Early on, SpaceX was exciting because it was "new ways to explore space, make it cheaper so we can do more science and fly more frequently, even go to other worlds".

It didn't take long for it to become painfully clear that the sole motivating factor behind all of this was... money. Commodify space. Treat it like the next step in 'manifest destiny'. The stupid hippies won't let us steamroll over the jungles and prairies, let's just go into space where we can do whatever the hell we want and make shitloads of money for ourselves.

NASA... which is a government organization and by definition is not doing this for the profit motive... is actually interested in not just the science of space exploration, the advancements we could make as a result, but also the human experience of actually going to space.

This is why Artemis is important.

It reminds you that space is not a resource to be exploited to fuel unending economic growth.

Space is the next step in exploration. We go there to better understand the cosmos, ourselves, and our place in it.

That is what makes it exciting.

Not the incoherent babblings of a racist sex-pest marketing guru who designed the fugliest truck to ever exist.
