Mit Fossilien von Vormenschen an den Rand des Alls: Scharfe Kritik an PR-Aktion

Ein Weltraumtourist hatte bei seinem Flug zwei unersetzliche Fossilien von Vormenschen mit an Bord. Die Kritik aus der Archäologie ist scharf und einhellig.

Was für eine beknackte Aktion, wie kommt man denn darauf? Das ist Menschheitserbe und kein Souvenir. Gab zu Recht scharfe Worte der Kolleg*innen:

FLIGHT TO NOWHERE

Pssst. Hey buddy...Yeah, you there.

I can sell you three minutes of weightlessness for only $450,000.00

Of course, it will take you two minutes to unbuckle, then rebuckle your seat belt.

WTH AM I MISSING 🤔

Can you imagine the pollutants put into the atmosphere with each flight to "almost outer space".

Richard Branson is set to slingshot his first space tourists today.

I'm not impressed with the prospect.

Watching the Challenger doc on Netflix and thinking about how the first civilian in the space program was a wonderful Teacher. Reagan made a big speech about it when he announced a teacher would be selected. Her loss with the crew was devastating. Today all the civilians in the private space launches are rich and famous. It says alot about how our society has changed since 1986.

Kymmenen vuotta Virgin Galactic on hehkuttanut avaavansa turistilennot avaruuteen. Nyt näyttää siltä, että tavoitteeseen päästään vihdoin, jo elokuussa.

Lippu avaruuden rajalle maksaa hulppeat $450'000.
