Still waiting
I have been waiting for my promised (by NASA) cheap tourist ticket to orbit for 45 years now.
I don't expect it to be cheap, but this is ridiculous.
Sigh. Some of the NASA posters when I was a kid, with all the Moon and Mars bases, manned nuclear rockets to the outer planets, robotic asteroid tugs, and space stations around Venus... OTOH all that was supposed to be government funded, and there was not the slightest concept of commercial anything in that vision of the future. They glossed over selling those asteroids or whatever they were going to do with them, resource-wise.
The only "somewhat preposterous" thing about that video was the crap music.
