This fella shot into space?

What's the point? and how much is it costing?

 

 

It'd be good to imagine that eventually, we'll get a lot better at this space stuff. The corrupt powers of the moment are plainly a lot more bothered about hoarding trillions in offshore accounts for their own greed and spending on pointless wars, but in the future we might be able to actually exist on several planets as a species if we do it properly (which is going to need a lot of funding.) It might be needed too when looking at the rate our population is increasing. So there's probably a lot of points for him being in space, along with the others that are there, and those that have been there in the past.

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned
A sun that is the source of all our power

The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour
Of the galaxy we call the 'milky way'
