and walking outside could probably only be done once per week or once per month, due to having to filter out all the dust

2019-02-04 02:37:09 UTC  

Whish wouldn't be cost or time effective at all

2019-02-04 02:37:16 UTC  

and having suits that are left ouside is dumb.... how do they maintain them?

2019-02-04 02:37:45 UTC  

the entire mars venture isn't time effective or cost effective lol

2019-02-04 02:37:50 UTC  

But yeah colonizing Venus seems more feasible

2019-02-04 02:38:01 UTC  

why venus??

2019-02-04 02:38:05 UTC  

Sun

2019-02-04 02:38:09 UTC  

oh solar power?

2019-02-04 02:38:12 UTC  

is that it?

2019-02-04 02:38:12 UTC  

lol

2019-02-04 02:38:21 UTC  

i mean we can't really terraform venus either

2019-02-04 02:38:26 UTC  

but whatever

2019-02-04 02:39:35 UTC  

Honestly just build a ton of solar panels on some planet and Beam power back to earth

2019-02-04 02:43:55 UTC  

lol

2019-02-04 02:44:01 UTC  

i guess

2019-02-04 02:44:15 UTC  

not as efficient as oil tho maybe

2019-02-04 02:44:19 UTC  

or nuclear power

2019-02-04 02:44:33 UTC  

I wrote this comment in the kurgeCRINGE mars video
-----------------------------

2019: Debut some spaceship.
2020: Get more investors.
2021: Deliver more hot air.
2022: Get more investors.
2023: Sweep 10 more failed ventures under the rug, and bribe the media to 'forget' about it.
2024: Get more investors.
2025: Start a minor LEO space tourism venture.
2026: Get more investors.
2027-2035: Virtue signal more and more about Mars as investors dump in money.
2036: "Go to Mars" reality TV show is a flop. There's is a plan to go home, but some things go wrong, and the whole crew dies.
2060: Elon Musk refuses to retire, but is so senile that he can no longer give coherent speeches. This continues for a year or so until all investors have finally lost confidence. No one now mentions Elon Musk, except in the past tense.
2037 - 2088: A handful of more ventures occur, driven by entrepreneurs who were inspired by Elon and charismatic enough to attract continued investment. Mars mania is about to fade until some crews succeed in return trips, but no venture is taken beyond this. The thrill is lost by 2087 or so. This is just like the moon landing.
The Next 1000 Years: No one cares about Mars beyond tourism possibilities or science. Space stations orbit above mars, to send probes down to collect samples. The probes then blast off back to the space station above, to deliver the samples back to the lab. That sorta thing.

The moon however? There is a future on the moon, IMO; even a few permanent colonies. The distance makes it more economically feasible, and there was an argument for benefit to industry.

2019-02-04 02:46:25 UTC  

@What Would Jack Conte Do? I agree with the message mostly

2019-02-04 02:46:34 UTC  

However oil isn't actually that efficient

2019-02-04 02:47:02 UTC  

If you consider the war cost to keep the world status quo on America's part

2019-02-04 02:47:34 UTC  

And I agreed when should have some colonies on the moon, but the problem is that there isn't anything there

2019-02-04 02:47:44 UTC  

Water, minerals

2019-02-04 03:26:47 UTC  

mercury's also a good place for colonies, if we wanna get that dyson sphere built (and utterly destroy mercury as a result of massive strip mining to build the sphere, lol)

2019-02-04 03:27:16 UTC  

there's elements and metals on the moon or something

2019-02-04 03:27:25 UTC  

i was some essential element

2019-02-04 03:27:28 UTC  

can't remember which tho

2019-02-04 03:27:52 UTC  

i think it was this one

2019-02-04 03:30:20 UTC  

helium-3

2019-02-04 03:30:54 UTC  

used with deuterium for fusion (assuming fusion is invented)

2019-02-04 03:31:25 UTC  

supposedly 1.1 million tons of helium-3 in the first few meters of lunar topsoil

2019-02-04 03:34:18 UTC  

that is crazy tho... the moon could become the saudi arabia of the future

2019-02-04 03:34:42 UTC  

can't wait for moon dictators who keep their women in space burkas

2019-02-04 03:34:44 UTC  

just saying

2019-02-04 04:07:17 UTC  

since this is a history channel

2019-02-04 04:08:07 UTC  

landing on mars will be to space expeditions what the storming of the bastille was to the French revolution

2019-02-04 04:08:38 UTC  

getting people on mars is really just a symbol
