From what I see in Germany, this project will be drowned to death in meetings to prepare meetings to define policies even before the first rivet is ordered to be produced.
- vardump 3y agoSigh. I wish you were wrong.
- FL410 3y agoWell don't worry, we have a fully stacked Starship waiting up to half a year for a Fish & Wildlife survey. Take your time.
- FireBeyond 3y agoAs it should be. Musk's "To Mars!" shouldn't just get to say "fuck Earth, we have grander plans".
- avmich 3y agoZander was saying "Forward to Mars!" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Zander https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Zander but he didn't have the technology yet.
- oefnak 3y agoSome local fish and wildlife is not the same as Earth.
- FireBeyond 3y agoHow many “Fuck local fish and wildlife”’s does it take to get to an unacceptable level of destruction for Musk’s profit, I mean, mission? We can survive six months of an environmental impact study.
- aporetics 3y agoThe attitude proceeds from the same presupposition, which doesn’t seem—using planetary ecology as a yardstick—to have much keeping it in check.

- mcpackieh 3y agoDon't forget armies of lawyers spamming hundreds of lawsuits at each and every step no matter how small. Can't buy a screw without every single other company that might sell screws filing lawsuits. Repeat this for every part, every service, etc. The only winners are the legal parasite class who are very powerful in Germany. This kind of problem isn't unique to Germany of course, but they exemplify it. And if you try to cut through this BS then German people get spooked; I think due to their history they prefer being bogged down in legal BS and are prone to be suspicious of any attempt to cut through red tape. I don't think this will change until the collective psyche of Germany heals.
