I've been wondering but what's the point of human habitats for commercial purposes like interplanetary research and mining? We can already build robots that are capable of doing so. They also don't need food, it doesn't matter if they die, they don't complain or suffer from social problems or threaten the mission.
Of course i think interplanetary human travel would be interesting for tourism or for people who want to live there for personal preference, but isn't it just an unnecessary expense otherwise?

well met broski

Could you recommend something for a lay practitioner to read about vajrayana that I could read that would be useful? As it stands I mostly just read suttas from /r/buddhism to accompany my meditation, with the occasional mahayana one thrown in. I've heard about deity meditation and done it once or twice and it actually was pretty illuminating. I'd like to know more if possible

if we can build one skyhook, what stops us from building a second skyhook? or a third? or however many we need to keep it stable

this isn't a video game, where you are arbitrarily restricted to a specific number until we complete a quest or some shit

why do you shit up every thread screeching how things are impossible, when the solution is so fucking simple that a 10 year old could figure it out
