It's not either / or. Regardless, it's a good example of the philosophical division between those who favor an inward focus (this is all there is, let's get really good at it) and those who look outward (this is just the start of an amazing journey).https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1111619117876957184 …

Disagree. Going to space isn't against the laws of physics. Totally doable. And... we haven't spent much on it. NASA's $20 b (and everything spent in the private sector) is a flyspeck in a $4.4 trillion inwardly focused budget.

In fact, I'm starting to believe that if we want to bypass the growing political chasm on EVERY issue, we need an external goal to focus on. A space boom would fit the bill and I think I've found a trigger for it
