Nasa already went sorry chud you cant see the data its lost

depends on what you mean

>(relatively accessible) space tourism, possibly including moon
my guess is 5-20 years
>getting humans to mars
i'd guess 10 to 40, possibly more
>colonizing moon
hard to predict, at least like 5 decades, possibly never
>colonizing mars
hard to predict, at least like 10 decades, possibly never
>getting humans to other solar system planets
almost certainly not in our lifetime, unless there are quite a few revolutions in physics and (specially) engineering
>getting humans to non-solar system planets
almost certainly never, unless we get a lot of revolutionary physics; even if that happens, probably at least a millenia

It's an economics issue not a capability issue, seeing we are headed into a major economic crash I would say 40+ years until we reach 1920s / 1960s level of economic boom again making high cost tourism viable.

They could send humans across the universe now but they'd die from old age before they even got 0.00001% of the way to their destination. Communication with earth from millions of light years away in a reasonable time could be even more impossible than travelling millions of light years away too

Wow that's crazy because as early as 1918 the New York Times predicted specifically that 6 million jews would be systematically killed in Europe. Such prescience!

A journalist was wrong? I get all my science opinions from journalists!

Not even a journalist, its just an opinion piece

Thunderfoot still thinks powered flight is impossible.
