    I just feel like we at least can, in theory, keep the shit we do on/to earth under control.

    Space is a different world entirely and not only do we not know what effects our shitty pollution projects have out there, we don’t even really care about it as far as I can tell.

      We aren’t even doing it NOW though… Not even close.

      Space will become so littered with high speed debris that within our lifetime it will be no longer safe to launch.
