      I guess that photos of the surface of other celestial bodies is cool or something but think of how many PlayStations you could buy with the money you saved if you just took a bunch of worms-eye-view photos of Antarctica and ran them through a neural net

      Like, sorry, but this does not make my heart sing, especially when I think about the price tag, especially when I think about the labor that went into putting something into space we'll never get back I pretty much already guessed that Venus looked exactly like thispic.twitter.com/jKbnkx2UFi

      I mean yeah but it's not that big a deal Like to put it in perspective the total cost of the Perseverance rover over the planned 11-year mission ($2.75 billion) is still significantly less than the check Disney wrote George Lucas to buy Star Wars ($4 billion)

      The cost of the Iraq War, which most historians define as taking place over only seven years (2003-10), is *hundreds of times* that $757.8 billion in direct DoD cash spent, $1.1 trillion if you count interest on the part funded by government bonds

      it is possible that penelope's ire is driven not by the material cost of perseverance, but rather by the being-towards-death it expresses a naive optimism, a vision of forever progress, which she takes to be not merely false but frankly abhorrent, given the state of things

      It is true that the little essay the kid wrote that won him the rover naming contest about "perseverance" would be very offensive to Penelope's worldview

      "Curiosity, Insight, Opportunity and Spirit None of these can exist without the most fundamental virtue of perseverance The understanding that whatever happens, the human race will continue moving forward, no matter what setbacks we face"

      "Even in the midst of this pandemic the dream of space perseveres Even in the midst of political turmoil the nation perseveres By continuing to reach upward to the stars from the depths of tragedy and fear we tell the universe We are not beaten and we never will be"
