> I don't think space exploration is super important at this point in our civilisational development. I think it's absolutely super important for our civilization's development. Right now way too many people care only about themselves. Getting people to care about the advancement of society in general is important rather than only caring about what they can personally get out of it. We won't develop as a society if we're shortsighted (shortsightedness caused global warming).
