I'm all for space exploration my only concern is turning it into a for-profit tourism market. We haven't even begun to understand the science in outer space beyond stuff like the space station. People talk about colonizing mars and we haven't even figured out a way to get there and not be exposed to harmful radiation. People like to think it's as simple as tunneling under the ground and building some kind of biodome but is way more involved than that. The science is mind boggling to me and I can't even wrap my head around the amount of physics involved in trying to get humans anywhere off of earth. I just think that getting private companies involved and making it A profit driven business, increases the chances for human error or failure, even danger when it comes to safety protocol. Think about the recently grounded Boeing 787’s: There had to be two crashes to get most countries to ground them and our president had to order them grounded because the company wasn’t doing it on their own. The FAA is supposed to be the safety watchdog and they haven’t figured out what the hell happeneed.
