I agree with your comment but noted that it’s also odd how sustainability, when mentioned in the same context as space, now refers to moving the crap we spread around the earth over the last 100 years, rather than sustainability of the planet and people themselves. Funny old, knackered world.
Sustainability is a universal problem, on earth and in space
As space technology and exploration develops, the health of the space environment must become a primary concern for space agencies and governments on earth

The richest persons today are Jeff Bezos and Elon Mus. However, if we look into the past, and try to take inflation into account, we can see that there have been even richer men whose fortunes accounted world’s half of the world’s GDP.
Even if they haven’t yet aligned, they sure are coming together nicely in time. Reading this from a while back, the planet won’t mind us leaving it, if we help heal the zounds we inflicted.

Ironic that our appetite for more/better communications (via satellites) paid for the early space economy. And that the internet and communications are what we give poorer countries, instead of food. Now they know why their kids are dying in pollution and disease at least.
Climate change, security and telecoms are among the key themes driving a boom in the space economy. Here’s a look at what’s behind the increased interest.
Even if they drop people back down a gravity well to the moon – after getting them up out into space, it has got to be said that even if it works, many people are against this show of power. ISS was a great model, commercial will solve it all by killing bad businesses rather than proping them up.
Maybe a valid idea but how else would you get us beyond our home planet – somehow I don’t think a charity would do the trick. SLS is amazing, Artemis is the way forward, however we pay for it imo.

Why improve people’s lives when you can instead be a captain of industry and hero of the galaxy?
Why didn’t any of the rich-list save anyone else? The problem isn’t just with ego, but with another sin, gluttony.
