“You want to wake up in the morning and think the future is going to be great - and that's what being a spacefaring civilization is all about. It's about believing in the future and thinking that the future will be better than the past. And I can't think of anything more exciting than going out there and being among the stars.” — ELON MUSK, SPACEX
The true future of the European Man & Women is out there amongst the stars! Welcome to /etm/. This is a place on Yas Forums to discuss everything space related(with a concentration on Mars). I normally post the general once a week every saturday between 8pm to 10pm UK time.

Explain to me a scenario where the space colony doesn’t immediately revolt, Independence Boogaloo 2.0, once sufficiently autonomous from earth, and then attack earth? All colonies do this in every simulation.

reminder if Reddit Musk or anyone else brings one (1) nigger to another settled planet they will have committed the greatest crime in all of human history by several orders of magnitude

lads, /sci/ has given us a hilarious update on the absolute STATE of Boeing
>In sum, my comparative assessment of these proposals in the non-price area do not lead me to conclude that a tradeoff to the higher priced proposal is in the best interest of the government, since in my view, SpaceX has the superior Technical Approach, a slightly superior Management Plan, and has, by a small margin, the best Past Performance among the other offerors. This, combined with the fact it also proposed the lowest evaluated price, leads me to select SpaceX for the initial GLS contract based on initial proposals.
>>As a result, the total evaluated price for NGIS, SNC, and SpaceX was determined fair and reasonable based on adequate price competition. Specifically, three out of four priced offers were received from responsive and responsible offerors, competing independently, to satisfy the Government’s expressed requirements, and there was no finding that any of the prices were unreasonable or unbalanced. The SEB was unable to determine whether Boeing’s proposed price was reasonable given its inaccurate conditional assumption and exceptions to the contract terms.
>>This offeror’s evaluation results and my assessment thereof, combined with the relative order of importance of the RFP’s evaluation factors, have led me to conclude that Boeing is not competitive for award.
You forgot Saudia Arabia is planning a colony in space and the Chinese as well

Musk is spitting out 5g satellites in space faster than a tesla
How do we prevent Jews from getting to Mars on the white man's rockets
Liam Bell
well unless something terrible happens in the meantime, i dont think they can stop it
Gavin Gonzalez
yeah, im assuming it was just a bad cold

whilst their only 'competitor', Oneweb, is going bankrupt, and taking a chunk of Arianespace with it

Make them waste time focusing on muh Israel.

well my answer revolves around you specifically saying "immediately" - the colonies survival will rely on more missions from Earth for a while which pretty much makes revolt and independence impossible. but you are right to think that independence is inevitable.

>The true future of the European Man & Women is out there amongst the stars! Fucking based. Most people here don't realize that the ultimate manifestation of National Socialist Germany wasn't conquest. It wasn't culture either. It was technology. The tanks, the rockets, the planes - something that a nation that was completely bankrupted and capitulated just recently should not be able to do, yet did. Africa cannot do this even if they did their best. The Middle East cannot do it. India cannot do it. China cannot do it without stealing. Even Japan and South Korea are piggybacking our technological success. It was a mobilized group of people, all of European origins, who did it and continue to do it to this day. Technology is the manifestation of the European continent (and its American offspring) since ancient times and it's simply foolish to push it aside or worse - to follow some retard like Kaczynski and castrate yourself of the main advantage that you hold.
Spreading humanity in Space should be the primary goal of every user here, vastly outweighing anything else in relevance. The white race cannot die if we reach the checkpoint of life extension, artificial reproduction and selection. It specifically cannot die if it's dispersed everywhere across multiple colonies. But it can still go extinct if it stays locked down right here on Earth. It's not jews or chinks or anyone else who'll kill you, it's the complexity of society and the eventual collapse which is statistically expected to happen when all of us are forced to inhale each other's farts in this tiny floating bubble. It's only a matter of time.
