Forgot what part of drakes equation blah blah there is no profit in space, no emails from a delicious young humanoid colony needing to be saved, and when people do reap the rewards, it won't be me or you, it might be a small percentage of jacyequation be about 0.05% of our future ancestors might get to go mining for some shit on a moon.
