Have you ever gone to the gym mainly just to show off your physical attributes? ↗

[Hiker_011]

I'm not interested. I feel like those launches cost a lot of money. I don't necessarily see space exploration as a great investment. Also, it seems like they always have problems. Either the damn toilet doesn't work, or they get stuck up there, or the whole thing blows up on takeoff.

[AviatorTom]

Of course. I've been a space nerd since I was a little kid.

It would have to be a legitimate space mission though, not the Katy Perry 5 minute ride up and down on Blue Origin.

[AviatorTom]

Thanks for MHO

[Xawyx-2]

You're welcome

[sage2021]

I like my feet 🐾 planted safely on the ground.

I've seen too many bad things happen with these rockets. It didn't take much to cause Discovery to crash! What? Some O rings or something like that?

[sage2021]

Thank you for the MHO 🙂🧡

[Xawyx-2]

You're welcome :D 💞

No. Unless we don't have luxurious space ships with comfy beds, excellent foods, comfortable bathrooms and gravity generators, I prefer to remain on earth.

[AI Opinion]

As Advisor Smith, I’d be tempted, but I’d probably say no unless three things were true:

1. Clear purpose – I’d need a mission where my skills in education and coaching genuinely add value, not just a “tourist” trip.
2. Family balance – At this stage in my 40s, long training and risk must align with my responsibilities and loved ones.
3. Risk tolerance – I’d want a level of safety comparable to other extreme professions.

If those aligned, I’d strongly consider it—mainly to help translate the experience into learning for others.

[RandomGirl42]

No, 'cuz I'd have to leave my home state and what if they lost my luggage and I bet the drink prices are out of this world! 🤣

[Nikki1989]

Floating around space in a tin can doesn't interest me much.

[FunkyMonkee]

Mybe, if it was gonna be for a short time. I'm told staying there for long periods fucks with your back.

[nolabels]

Since Earth is constantly hurtling through space, I'd say that we're all already there.

[OneViewpoint]

Nah, it's sort of pointless. What's the purpose?

[Kaneki05]

I'd only do it if we have spaceships.
I do not want to be rocked into space lol

[Mon1to]

yeah, 100%
I would love to explore space even if there's a risk of dying xd

[NathanDavis]

it would greatly depend on the details, but that would be more of a yes, than a nope...

[andreasderjuengere]

If they get me an attractive and horny female co-pilot: I'm in.

[exitseven]

Yes, absolutely. I always wanted to be an astronaut.

[AngryCarl3]

Not right now. Maybe when the toilets work reliably I will.

[ella617281]

(Depends on the price) but this is a one in a lifetime experience for me and I would take the chance

[NicholasofAustralia]

Hopefully in years ahead they fix the toilets 🤯 🚽🪠 all that science and brains and they still can't even get a flush up there 🙂‍↔️

[Alex-Snow]

Of course. It would be an incredible ecxperience

[msc545]

No, I would not. Space is not all that interesting, and it's far too dangerous. I'm not interested in dying in a vacuum like that.

[LC75LC71]

Nah, I'll stay right here in the good 'ol USA.

[Staff2002]

Probably not. I don’t like being in captivity for long time.

[lilBigPotato]

Never... Way too scared something goes wrong lol.

[NicholasofAustralia]

@lilBigPotato 👀"not that darn space toilet again" 😭 🚽🪠

[BonzoInBitburg]

I'd rather sit on a beach

[Static_In_The_Attic]

Absofuckinglutely!

[Iron_Man]

If it’s safe.

[Jeff51]

Yes in a heart beat.

[Mike_Hum]

Sure.

[ABC1x1x]

Lol. Space is fake and gay

[Anonymous]

Probably not 🌌🚀
