Is space exploration worth the money?

How can yall argue about this if yall spend 30 times the money on machines to kill innocent people 😂😂😂

Some pros of space exploration are technology, job creations, knowledge, space tourism and environmental issues. Space exploration leads to new technologies that can be used in different industries including health, medicine, transportation, and computer technology. Space exploration can help address environmental issues, such as monitoring crop health and forest health. Space exploration can create jobs and economic growth and increase knowledge about the universe. Some people say that space tourism is cool and that only a few hundred people have seen the view from outside the atmosphere. Cons about space exploration are space colonization, environmental impact and it can be dangerous. It can be dangerous for astronauts and the planet because you can lose your life out in space. Rocket launches can have adverse environmental effects, such as the soot or black carbon from rocket emissions. Space colonization creates new risks, such as prioritization risks, aberration risks, and conflict risks.

I'm not a big fan of the cosmos, space etc, but this vod makes me feel so encouraged in my life.

Shoutout to voyager, the realest oh🤘

This video is another one of those false equivalency sad defense apologies that we hear so often down through the years from NASA

Try saying "it's ONLY $25,000,000,000" instead of saying "it's only one half of one percent of our budget". That hits home harder and is more truthful.

Can you imagine what any hospital would be like with even a percentage of $1,000,000,000? Of if even 1% of a BILLION dollars was used to pay for your rent? Or your taxes? Or to fight Crime? Or to pay in the fight to cure Cancer? Or Heart Disease? Because obviously NASA and these foolish entities like the Planetary Society feel that spending Billions of YOUR tax dollars to investigate giant rocks in space (which is what our moon and Mars basically are) is more important than addressing all the dozens of pressing problems here in the U.S.

Hey, if private companies want to waste their $ on space projects, by all means, let them do so, and if the U.S. wants to explore space AFTER we've solved our awful problems here first, I'm all for it but NOT while we're facing Disease and Unemployment and Terrorism and Housing and dozens of more immediately pressing problems first. Spending BILLIONS of U.S. citizens taxes for Post-it Notes and Velcro is an indefensible waste of time, resources and $.

Another example is Earth won't last forever so we need take steps that will eventually lead to us moving to another habitable planet. Granted that is a very long ways off but if we don't take step toward that goal we may be to late or not enough resources to get all there

No data, no specifics of ground gain. Incredibly responsible, those things exist but the author of the video refused to include any of it. For a video about science, terribly irresponsible

So how does one rationalise NASA claiming to do good for humanity whilst continuing to work with the US military and weapons manufacturers like boeing, lockheed martin, etc. NASA are directly complicit in the manufacture of terror weapons by helping prop up manufacturers.

"It's only 0.5% of the budget." So? Waste is waste. Is it priority number one when it comes to reigning in the Federal Budget? Not at all. But just because we waste money elsewhere, too, doesn't mean that NASA is worth funding. CUT ALL THE WASTE.

No, we went to the moon that’s enough they have a telescope. Now they could see 1,000,000,000,000 miles away and all they see is more space. Meanwhile, the oceans right on the Earth I have never been explored to that extent, we should take care of our earth, and not worry about space, by the way, God was the creator, and they want to prove him wrong, which will never happen

Probes, satellites, robots – yes. Humans and other animals – no. No justification to send humans (or other animals) into space

like my comment pls

hello, this is ethan

thanks

well even though we need to set eyes on our planet but if we don't pay attention to the universe then we might miss something that will save our planet that is in outer space
what we could leave the planet to another to keep from dying because there is no way to stop it from burning what if there is some kind of cure on another planets for sickness
that we don't have here what if we are being attach from space that you don't know is there because we didn't explore to discover the problem

since money was invented to begin with and now is digital, it's literally limitless… there is no "budget" give nasa unlimited amounts of money and get the human race into space NOW

Thank you for the love
I think and think throwing rockets at space is not only wrong it hurts
Please refrain from not thinking and thinking of the thing that thought gave you. Space thought of sound when there was nothing sound is the Mother together we made Light 0 1 2 3 =Life
Life to live together on Earth there is only one thing you can change is your thoughts thanks again for your love
Enjoy thought, sounds, light and Life
