I don't wanna hear any x-files larping bullshit about "SECRET BLACKSITE REVERSE ENGINEERED UFO TECHNOLOGY MOON LANDING FAKED FLAT EARTH". Why are NASA such fucking clowns? They're too pathetic to even be called a money sink since they don't even get ten percent of the federal budget. You'd think that if you have less money you should spend it more wisely but they spend it on shit that has fuck-all to do with space like aid to muslim countries and "climate change". Despite all the corruption and bureaucracy of the military industrial complex, they would get boots on Mars with far greater speed and efficiency than fucking NASA.

If you think sending astronauts to Mars is easy, I've got news for you.

For starters the launch window only happens like every 2 years

how many of them u think have herpes?

Spend enough time in a low gravity environment and your eyes start turning to jelly. There are a large number of hurdles to jump that are bigger than propulsion.

Can confirm 20 jets just flew over my house it's really happening

Because liberals don't want nuclear materials launched on a rocket that could explode, and there has never been or ever will be an economic purpose to putting infrastructure in space, and nuclear rockets only make sense when you plan to run them for several missions or have a manned payload.

I blame the Jews

you believe these morons are capable of sending anything to space, let alone mars?
