To boldly go where no man has gone before!

After enjoying the fruits of your labors, we all need a place to chill. This is that place. Totally senseless irrelevant banter encouraged.

thanks munchy
hard to imagine a system that was so intrically assembled being hard to disassemble

whatever.
i bet they boost alot of its components into longer term orbits to be used by future constructions before they deorbit the mass of the station into the ocean and god help whatever ships happen to be there...

musk may visit mar and may die there
but there will be no indypendant colony under his auspice

think about it

yes we can make rocket fuel once we get there and yes we can dig tunnels and provide habitat
but to be indypendant
you have to produce medicines humans need
you have to be able to manufacture clothing and spacesuits for all sizes of humans that your assuming will be born and grow there

dust is such an insane problem in these extra world environments
our efforts have all been to absorb its attacks at our solutions
not to live with them
it goes on and on

etc etc

musks has the resources to pepper mars with supply ships for decades but,
their not going to be able to do more than nurture a colony dependant on life support

a billionaire idiots dream
and a dead end opposed to an actual solution...

and yet the secret space force has it all figured out
they've been there for decades with their flying saucers, triangles and tic-tacs

Look what I missed this summer.
