        Very interesting indeed. Unfortunately governments have lost the motivation to heavily invest in space travel, and while I would prefer it's them, if a private company wants to invest and make technological strides to make it easier to get to space than go ahead.

        Not sure if you are being sarcastic, it's hard to tell over twitter. If you're not then your an idiot, Space Force is pretty much just a rebranding of the air force sector that works on space. There's a huge gap between military satellites and launching rockets around the moon.

        Destroy? 1st the Moon isn't a planet is a natural satellite (i.e. moon), and 2nd they are lifeless! What damage could they possibly make on the Moon or Mars that nature hasn't done with astroids!🙄

        En verdad no sé cómo contestarle a usted. No quiero insultar, pero no entendí nada de lo que ud. escribió, pero noté en su perfil que ud. entiende español. Bueno, el planeta Tierra beneficiaría de los humanos viajando a otros cuerpos celestiales, como lo ha hecho hasta ahora…

        …muchas de las tecnologías que se han hecho para uso espacial mejoran cosa en la Tierra, por ejemplo sistemas de filtración de agua y reclamación de desechos con orígenes de las misiones estadounidenses y soviéticas, pero como decía la Luna y Marte han sido bombardeados…
