Good, grounded speculative fiction genuinely gives me hope and excitement for the humanity of the 2500s-on, or so.
If you like SciFi, here’s some oldies https://lostscifi.com/all-episodes-of-the-lost-sci-fi-podcast/
In the past everyrhing was better, even the future
haha, although technically they do have flying cars in China now https://engineerine.com/chinas-flying-taxis/
Seems like we ought to have a rotating wheel space station by now.
Or a Babylon 5 rotating tube
the technical terms is O’Neill cylinder https://nss.org/o-neill-cylinder-space-settlement/
Imagine if all the money the US spends on its military went towards space exploration.
Mixed feelings about it. One common thing in newer sci-fi i can absolutely agree is CAPITALISM IN SPACE IS BAD IDEA.
So despite appreciating things like colossal advances in astronomy, every failure of US space program is a success for mankind especially now when there is alternative again.
That is a fair point, it looks like China will dominate the new space race and that’s definitely a better option for humanity.
That’s the future they stole from us, the one that was promised to us as kids
i can’t blame them. they thought the soviets would win and had no idea about climate change.
To be fair, if the Soviets won then we likely wouldn’t be facing a climate crisis either.
