Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

More. The amount we spend right now is pretty much negligible.

Spend more with the caveat that increased privatization leads to improved capital efficiencies so you get longer mileage for each dollar. Increasingly a greater emphasis on reusability.

Mars Colonization project was always a grift abusing people's fascination with sci-fi concepts.

The extinction risk posed by human-bound events (e.g climate change, pandemics, nuclear war, rogue AI, etc) is 0.02-0.05% a year, while extinction risk posed by earth-bound events (e.g asteroids, volcanic events, solar flare, etc) is 0.00001-0.0001% a year.

These numbers are highly speculative, but most assumptions will give a similar logical result: Whatever the massive amount of money needed for Mars Colonization, it would justify its investment only after we spend 200x of that amount on climate change risks.

Any mathematical logic says less, but who cares about math, sci-fi is profitable.

i think explore on how we can extract the good on other planet to be used in mother earth to live i think no

As living beings, how much should we spend in evolving beyond the primordial soup?

iirc budget should be ~10x'd

counterintuitively, by the time people realize civilization needs to spend on space exploration, there's a good chance that preexisting space exploration will pay the majority of the remaining cost.

More but not to the benefit of some billionaires more for science :)

Would a space elevator count towards space exploration? 

I really really want a space elevator

Definitely should do better than having to ground the rocket for a significant time while some guys sign papers in the gov

I think FC demographic will lean “more”. But as a civilization, I believe it’s probably about ok how much we are spending now. 

As a top priority, I don’t believe it’s space (even as a mega fan). To the likely follow up, “then what else?”, probably helping humans cope with information abundance (I believe it’s tearing us apart). Probably, towards cheaper / cleaner energy (much is downstream from here).

I think currently there is also a ton of room for increasing capital efficiency. SpaceX has been doing so much more than other established companies and even space agencies with much less.

More is great, but an even greater amount proportionally should be spent on protecting the habitability of the planet we already have. Because right now we are spending effectively zero on that.

My answer would entirely depend on who “we” is

only if you remember to shave no point in being unaesthetic while exploring smfh

However much people want to spend privately.  I’d rather my tax dollars go to fix the god damn roads and transit in NYC

yeah i hope you get stuck on earth one day
