    I mean technologies like imaging improvements used to scan moon made CT and MRI taking better images, Robotics tech that has pushed prostetic limbs and robotic surgery foward, remote diagnostics has taken leaps because, well ISS is pretty remote place.

        Yeah. It also was american program, but every country benefits from it today. Scientific break troughs tend to get out there.

            Im trying to fight urge to say, “i bet you are often confused.”

            Im not arguing anything. Im just saying that progress in sience does not matter if it comes from goverment, or billionare, or dude in a barn.

            From all the things billionares could be competing against eachother, space isint the worst. Its not the best thing either, but it is a fuck ton better than buying football teams or building golf courses.

              Ah. I see. Yet you failed to include an example of a progress made by a billionaire. And made 3 typos in that sentence, but who’s counting.

              And fuck you too I guess.
