I'd like to say something like TKD, but to ensure I go down in history I would probably say my own version of "A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit", referencing how we are the pioneers of space exploration and the future of humanity for thousands of years to come and the struggles we face today will be immense and we will never truly see the results of our efforts, but knowing our descendants will remember us for the steps we took, the sacrifices we made, and the foundations we built.

What's the problem, exactly? We should've had humans on Mars decades ago. All other problems have been solved. Food and water can be stocked up for months, oxygen can be made through electrolysis, radiation is a meme... so what gives? Thank fuck for SX and Starship because it seems this world is ran by kikes with no foresight or vision whatsoever. Yeah, there's a lot of risks, but so what? Everything we have done until now required risking lives and many sacrifices. What happened to the NASA of the 60s?
