Just because it’s dangerous and not always fun doesn’t make it a “mission”. Exactly like when some rich schmuck pays 150k to climb Everest.

Don’t disagree, just looking at it from the Lord Farquaad point of view, “Some of you may die, but it’s a sacrifice I am willing to make”. I think space exploration is good and if we have to burn a few billionaires to get there, I am sanguine.

I think we could learn so much if this ends in a total wipe out of some billionaires… Let’s hope for the best for science, and then do some replication studies with more billionaires to be sure all variables stay the same
