who cares man? i'm not approaching this from a partisan place and think it is ridiculous no matter who does it. i think it is a tragedy of selfishness and stupidity that we place things like this above basic human needs and always have.
Good move by President Biden.
Long distance space exploration is a childish endeavor when the world is facing real problems that we need to solve.
It's like they're actively looking for a backup planet so they can say fuck it and leave the rest of us here.

Unless you think there is some Malthusian Trap coming up (or, conversely, strongly believe there isn't one), eventually, space exploration is going to be a necessity. There are only so many resources on this planet and the human population continues to grow.
Long term thinking aside, to call the impulse of exploration childish is asinine. This is the impulse embedded deep within our species that helps drive history forward. Imagine saying "Why develop the printing press? There is a famine going on!"
