I think you're underestimating what we hairless apes have accomplished in the last 100 years. Now compound those advancements with the use of super computers, for its entire duration, and the advancements will be mind blowing in comparison to the last 100 years. I can absolutely see us mining the moon and possibly even mars within that time frame. That isn't saying we'll have light speed capable spaceships, trade agreements with an alien species and terraformed planets to our needs. It's just a belief that we'll find a way to make untold sums of money beyond what we are capable of here on this little blue rock. Agreed! We used to do some really cool shit with computers as powerful as calculators, a little motivation and who knows? A few more wars and our technology will be set!! Sad but true.....

The inside of that capsule is so different from the Apollo and shuttle days. It's really cool. Almost like a car but where there should be a windshield, there is a row of touch screens.

Wow so awesome!!!
Did anyone else shit a brick right after takeoff saying to themselves “it’s too slow”? I swear it looked like it was gonna fall back and crash.
Also love the rocket recovery system that is some cool stuff
