Well, that’s probably a pretty good argument. I wish it would be different…
Personally, I think we need space to solve climate change faster (or rather, the effects it has on us - climate change is a pretty intricate factor of the climate itself, but we need to be better prepared for those changes and mitigate some of them), U.S. politics are very influential around the world and that pick would hopefully influence ESA and their funding more…
From my European point of view, i just hope she picks Kelly as her VP. A progressive Astronaut, Ambassador for UNITED24 and someone that knows that we should save us from the ultimate climate collapse…maybe we can get Alexander Gerst here in Germany to do some politics :D
I simply do not understand those people. You want to keep driving, selling and making internal combustion? Then do it with synthetic fuels, ffs. It’s already roughly the same cost when considering everything. Efficiency doesn’t matter for those clowns anyway.
That’s also something I absolutely do not understand…yes, being disappointed is pretty normal in a democracy, it’s always a compromise. But not hammering down the facts what Democrats did this period to actually help every American is just Mind boggling.
Especially 6 Months before an election, here in Germany you can’t stop any politician yapping away with what they have done. (Although, positive or negative always depends on one self…)
