minus-squareflandish@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoYeah. That’s the whole point. Fair enough. The people on this commercial flight were there as a marketing tool not as a science tool. At some point “astronaut” has to mean “did science in space” and not “bought a sightseeing ticket so a corporation could profit.” I’m not a carnie because I spent 5 ride tickets on the coaster. Even if I buckled my own seatbelt.
