much booing to the capitalists profiting off of it and slapping their names on it.

This is the best part though, massive wastage and corruption ensures that US stays behind in the space race, and when the funding wanes, entire thing will come crashing down.

I guess. Perhaps it's idealist in me speaking, but it pains me to see such waste. And it pains me to see this waste paraded around, infecting the minds of people into thinking "that's how you do it". That somehow this is awesome, but Roskosmos having reliable and stable launch schedule using tried and tested methods is "lame", "retrograde" and ugh.

And that's even before accounting for the limited resources we have on Earth and the impact these vanity projects have

Of course i also want to see humanity reaching to the stars. But not that part of humanity, not USA and especially not USA private corpos.
