Focus entirely on orbital infrastructure and asteroid mining. End all useless scientific expeditions, those can be done at any time, with the possible exceptions of research into the Sun (largest energy producer in the solar system, also solar flares), Mars/Moon, and asteroids. There is no need to do anything involving Jupiter or Saturn right now. Save that for future generations.

Stick a bacalhau node in front of the petabytes of data holed up in your server room to let everyone run edge compute on it

https://github.com/bacalhau-project/lilypad

Bonus points if you make it pay per job with crypto with lilypad

Its insane the taxpayers fund data vollection, but only a handful of users can ssh im and run analysis on it

This will be one small step for nasa, one giant leap for science

Acquire blackmail on a sufficient number of congressional members, to remove requirements that spending be spread across as many districts as possible. Related to that, get rid of any sort of cost+ contracts, as those easily ballon in price. Offer fixed amount contracts only.

We have a fairly good idea what we're looking at, if even just in a broad sense. But the point is figure out what all of the stuff out there is, how it works, and hence how the laws of nature work.

That said, expensive "everything to everyone" telescopes like JWST are a massive mistake. For the same price we could've gotten three excellent specialized telescopes.

No you don't.

You do realize all you are doing is seeing dots in the sky and extrapolating how things work here on Earth to those dots?
It's no different from the famous frog in a well story told to kids.
If laws of nature are different out there all your cosmological conclusions becomes completely bogus.

Pretty much this. There is no reason to believe the light seen from some distant start traveled in a straight line. Data is going to bring the whole charade to a close. Dark matter is fake and gay.

>> No.15811574

>>15811561
It might traveled in a straight line or it might not have.
Point is there is no way to verify what the hell exactly is going on out there until you have a ship you can fly out.
For all we know we are stuck in some bubble and NASA's been examining natural patterns on a cosmic dome this whole time.
It's like what that other guy said, stick with Mars/Moon/asteroids and stop wasting entire careers spinning what could very well be fairy tales.

Go look at a galaxy or nebula in your own telescope and tell me it's just "dots." You haven't even put in enough effort to learn the basics of how we know these things, let alone JUST FUCKING LOOK AT THEM, so you have no place talking about such things.

>>15811561
It depends what you mean by a straight line, but even if it doesn't, it doesn't seem to spontaneously change where it's coming from. In other words, we always see the same galaxies in the same spots. Thus if light doesn't travel in a straight line, there's still something like a 1-to-1 correspondence between the universe and the celestial sphere. Also dark matter is absolutely real, regardless of whether the name is appropriate or palatable to you.

>>15811574
That level of skepticism precludes actually flying out there and looking at things too. Why should one set of senses be better than another? In fact, pretty much all science is looking at displays on electronic devices. You cannot escape that gap between reality and your mind.
