I just read about the Lunar Gateway project and... oh my God. They're going to build a pointless ISS Jr. in a hipster lunar orbit and make everyone stop there on the way to the Moon, for no reason. When did NASA become space Amtrak? Why do they love these shitty space stations?

I could not believe it when they announced it. Until then my biggest concern was whether it'd be too hasty to go straight to Mars or if building a lunar base first would bog us down too long. Lo and behold they managed to find a way to bog us down without accomplishing anything!

It's pretty amazing! Though anything that deters us from going to Mars makes me happy.
