This might be our collective madness. We’re talking about Space. An expanse beyond comprehension of the human mind, but we frame it as a race as if who gets there first is important in any way. Let’s all go!

Let’s teraform worlds. Let the stars belong to us. 

There are a trillion tons of gold in the asteroids! Let’s smoke weed on the moon. 

The guy who goes first is cool, but we have a chance to reach for so much more. Let’s get back to work people!
