> Everyone knows space based telescopes are orders of magnitude better, and will be better for research than thousands of earth based telescopes Real terrestrial telescopes are better than hypothetical space-based ones. And I didn’t say we don’t want more capacity nor that Falcon 9 isn’t the most successful rocket ever, nor that I don’t have faith in SpaceX’s ability to create Starship, nor that Starship won’t eventually add space-based telescopes. I said that none of that actually addresses the current concerns of people who currently need to do their work, as GP implied their complaints are totally irrelevant because “someday we’ll launch more.”
