I think you might have taken his comment a bit out of context. :shrug:

First of all, they should get more funding instead of relying on private businesses to do their supplying. Second of all, the investments they make doing this kind of stuff shouldn't blow up. :lol:

This is what it should look like

uhh they wouldnt need to rely on private businesses if they got more funding, that was kinda the point of my statement

sending humans to space is not a cheap investment. it is a smart one, just in terms of achieving the highest of human potential. which is like our purpose here, right?

don't you want to build homes off planet so we can have more than one world to fight over?

Losing a rocket here and there is bound to happen.

Its is rocket full fighting gravity after all. Complex enginneering.

Its makes a good show I guess.

Someone somewhere must be extremely pissed...

I wonder if insurance covers rocket launches

:hmm:

I think trying to go to other planets and expanding is important, but atm OUR planet is getting more and more fucked up, we need to worry about that first not blow billions, on rockets



Priorites, all that money that exploded couldof helped other more important things

"I have no way of knowing whether you, who eventually will read this record, like stories or not. If you do not, no doubt you have turned these pages without attention. I confess that I love them. Indeed, it often seems to me that of all the good things in the world, the only ones humanity can claim for itself are stories and music; the rest, mercy, beauty, sleep, clean water and hot food (as the Ascian would have said) are all the work of the Increate. Thus, stories are small things indeed in the scheme of the universe, but it is hard not to love best what is our own—hard for me, at least."

From virgin galactic:

Quote:

A "serious anomaly" resulted in the "loss" of SpaceShipTwo during a test flight Friday, and the status of the pilots isn't known, Virgin Galactic said on Twitter.

"We will work closely with relevant authorities to determine the cause of this accident," the company said on Twitter.




Serious anomaly means blew up in space lingo

Good point. I mean the government has loved wasting our money since the beginning. Why don't we get to vote on what our tax dollars are supporting???



I'd be thousands of times happier to see my money "wasted" by NASA then used to arrest some stoners or shoot some brown kids.

Sad news. Rip. But yea.. Wake up call, there are far more important things to pursue than to get a bunch of millionaires in to space.. I like the concept, but just doesn't seem like the right time..

He could have been more sympathetic that's all, for example he could have referred to them as aerospace engineers, add a few fancy words, and viola, you've got urself a buyer, but there's only one problem.. He ain't sellin :smirk:

So if you want to see a private space company doing shit right look up SpaceX.
But this launch was carried out by Orbital Science to take supplies, including experiments, some of which created by children and students.
Apparently the destruction of the craft was deliberate but no reasoning was given, and the decision making process was not defined.
Though it going down on the launch pad instead of in a urban area is better I suppose.

I went out to watch the launch and was perplexed why I couldn't see it until I turned on the news

This is what it should look like






I did the same thing. Much disappoint. :undecided: But at least no one was hurt...
