I largely agree with this: We're not going to Mars because it's going to be expensive and no one wants to pay the bill.

Here's the first installment of my case against landing human beings on Mars. You may think you disagree, but I'm going to talk you around. https://idlewords.com/2023/1/why_not_mars.htm

@andrewdessler I particularly like the assessment of the ISS the author does in passing: «its only purpose being to teach its creators how to build future spacecraft like it. The ISS crew spend most of their time fixing the machinery that keeps them alive, and when they have a free moment for science, they tend to study the effect of space on themselves» The ISS should not be replaced!
