Almost the end of an era. So sad. Some things are just build to be used. They shouldn't become museum pieces. I do not agree with the commercialisation of space. And .

You *must* see this:

True Picard, but at the same time look how many civilizations were wiped out by that commercialisation. If we're not careful there are so many things that *could* go wrong if we allow the commercialisation of space. And that's why things should be done on a public and scientific basis for the benefit of all humankind.
... Two of the astronauts, Steve Bowen and Alvin Drew, are due to go on the first of two, six-hour spacewalks to install a new store room to the ISS. Just imagine your camera was good enough to see them doing it... |
