My point: (Off-Topic)

Honestly that’s exactly my fear. Sure, that’s beyond our life time, but it’s worth worrying about.

This is all so beyond the scope of putting a Tesla in a rocket ship, I realize. I am just cynical enough to think that with our current climate and corporate culture and political leadership passing legislation that explicitly values corporate profits over any sort of actual human compassion and benefit, I feel like we’re exactly at the inflection point that could lead us to the dark future of Alien instead of the hopeful one of Star Trek. And I do not think it’s hyperbolic to say so.

Currently we have treaties that make it so no nation (or corporation) can own anything in space. Worry once those go away. For now we are fine.
