It really sucks. I legit feel like I might get kicked out of the space industry bcz of the dumbass administration. I will end up in the private sector making rockets for space tourism, which isn't inspiring at all bcz, let's face it. Going into space and being a billionaire isn't all that special. But doing science for humankind, that's something to aspire too, and they're trying to take that away from us.

There's so much more to the private sector than tourism rockets! Consider:

  • Cheap components that don't work

  • Cheap satellites that don't work

  • Cheap lunar landers that don't work

  • Pump-and-dump get-rich-quick schemes

It was pure cringe how all these rich people just got back from space, like they think it's an achievement, it's nothing more than a rich person going to Everest . Shatner was quite disappointed
