> "The idea that children could be out without a parent hovering was just completely unknown to them," Macklem recalls. "And the fact that the kids talked to someone who they obviously knew but who was not a parent."

I didn´t know the situation in the US was quite so dystopical that kids on their own was any surprise...

I guess there is the possibility of putting porn everywhere...

One of the things it takes is piracy being severely restricted, but by the usual interpretations of the space traty, thatsfine in space.

Treatis aren’t ignored without cost, they are artifices in the same sense that the obligation to treat you and what you say decently is an artifice.

About the same as human rights in similar cicumstances I would imagine

Hey, that’s a big unsourced claim to make about an organisation that has no experience of manned spaceflight.

Well, the mountaineer reason of ”because it’s there”, which honestly is probably the more honest and moral of the two. To become a ”mulit-planet species” in a real sense we need more earthlike planets, else the iss in orbit around the moon would be enought to make the claim. Consider that we don’t cout ourselves as an underwater species just by virtue of submarines. Even if we made a self sustaining underwater base and condemneded people to live there forever it would just be those poor people living underwater, we aren’t suddenly a underwater species.

Not when you hold it in you hands, which is the clearly stated premise.

Right, so you haven't heard any of the noise over NK sending up rockets then? Nukes are not spy sattelites, they are extremely destructive and symbolic weapons and you say the russians will be fine with an overflight based on their faith in the current administration... because that is really the argument to be had in this scenario: is instrument error more or less likely than a trumpian sneak attack?

Something else that can happen is that citizens side with their elected representatives and start boycotting you in significant numbers.

Uh, you remember how indyref was Cameron gambling the cohecion of his country for the opportunity to steal a policy issue from the opposition? The idea that indyref was allowed out of respect of popular will is utterly deluded, Cameron never cared for the scots as they are too left to vote for him.

The russians have the correct solution of simply adding rockets vaugely looking like finns instead of fake fins!

Do you mean you should select the majority norms or let the first random poster exclude everyone that isn't in their subculture?

Title says Mario, but then the example is Megaman? Is he really that unknown theverge?!
