Space is so gay now. Let’s pretend for a moment that DART actually faceplanted into an asteroid. What am I hoping to learn from that? Was there a BCA performed? Do we really think our society is to the point where we could learn anything beneficial from this event and use the results in a meaningful way now or in the near future? Of course, the whole thing is faker than shit but I still don’t understand what normies think is happening here.
