We're slowly getting back to a regular schedule after I was out with COVID. Thanks for your patience!  I share what's been on my mind lately, and what kept me preoccupied when I was recovering from COVID. There's been alot of dystopia floating around in my head - and no wonder, its pretty dystopian right now in the real world. Our lives are intertwined with the digital world, there's a pandemic ongoing, and of course - a US election. What else could 2020 bring us? My basic premise this week - is space travel the ultimate hail mary for humanity to progress to a fantastic future? Can continued lunar presence bring about a stable space economy? Can the long shot of SpaceX creating an independent Mars city with its own laws bring about a good future for humanity? Is resistance futile? Lots of question - too few answers. But I would love to hear what you think!  Instagram - @todayinspacepod Facebook - /TodayInSpacepodcast Email - todayinspacepodcast@gmail.com https://blogs.nasa.gov/commercialcrew/2020/11/06/crew-dragon-at-launch-complex-for-nasas-spacex-crew-1-astronauts-arrive-sunday/ https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2020/11/starships-line-up-musk-expectations-sn8-test/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.inverse.com/innovation/spacex-mars-city-legal/amp https://www.businessinsider.com/spacex-elon-musk-free-mars-colony-constitution-space-law-legality-2020-10 Borg Costume: https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBo53oDP1Z/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Original Artist who created 3D Models: https://www.instructables.com/Resistance-Is-Futile-How-to-Become-the-BORG/
