First country to make it to space was a Communist one.
- sneak 3y agoFirst humans born in space in meaningful numbers will not be citizens of an Earth country at all. Your comment is a red herring. Sending a few hundred people into low Earth orbit is not "making it to space" in the sense being discussed in this thread. We're talking about a million humans living not-on-Earth. No Earth government gives a fuck about that. They became governments because they enjoy lording over hundreds of millions of people here and now.
- optimalsolver 3y agoIf you believe any significant numbers of humans can congregate anywhere in physical reality without forming recognizable government structures, you're in for a real disappointment.
