Comment on Mars Attacks: How Elon Musk's plans to colonize Mars threaten Earth.

CosmoNova@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

Mars colonies are mainly ab terrible idea because companies like SpaceX ruin our living space on earth to get ahead. Just look around their launch sites that have transformed once vibrant ecosystems into a post apocalyptic hellscape. It‘s simply unsustainable to ruin a livable planet in order to colonize a dead rock. The whole Mars mission is a scam from that perspective alone. I think even entertaining the idea of a Mars colony and debating about it‘s independence from Earth is missing the point.
