Voyager was pointing the wrong way relative to its motion, series is a disaster. As someone that literally works on NASA budgetary stuff and knows how the hot dogs are made, NASA doesn't need more money, really. It needs to have a better idea how to use what it's got.

AwkwardKnob posted:Yes, it's TV, but the original aired on PBS with no commercial interruption. Plenty of shows have done something similar, and I would have preferred it that way. What's weird about that? I am probably different than a lot of TVIV goons in that I literally loathe commercials and don't even watch live TV or have cable. Stuff like Netflix, Amazon Prime, or just good old fashioned piracy enable me to experience all the shows and documentaries I like to watch with no commercials. Frankly, I don't understand how the rest of you tolerate it otherwise haha To be honest, it would be rather much to expect 220 channels across the planet to show this without commercial interruption.

It might not need more money to fund its current missions, but I think what they're implying is that with a bigger budget they could take on even more projects. E: Even Neil couldn't get them to accurately depict the asteroid belt. Biggest pet peeve in public understanding of the solar system. I give up.

NASA deserves all the money they could possibly ever dream of and more. If the Apollo program wasn't suddenly shut down after the early 70s and we continued on with the NASA roadmap we'd have been on Mars by the mid 80s.

Josh Lyman posted:This isn't up against much so if the ratings suck, well... you should have no more faith in humanity. Uhhh, it's up against The Walking Dead (insane rating juggernaut), Downton Abbey (sizable and loyal audience) and True Detective (early critical/cult hit). It could be worse, but that's a reasonably challenging set of competitors.

You are a nerd posted:It might not need more money to fund its current missions, but I think what they're implying is that with a bigger budget they could take on even more projects. That's the problem though. If you want NASA to blow the doors off engineer and science again, NASA has to have one super-goal to accomplish. In the 60s, almost the entire agency was devoted to getting to the Moon. If I remember right, exactly two flights (two Mariners) were not lunar missions.

It's nice that they found a way to re-use the Illusive Man office set from Mass Effect 3. Wouldn't want that to go to waste on a backlot somewhere.

We'd have killed a few crews and that would have been that. We couldn't have kept a crew alive for more than a few weeks at that point.

There are an untold multitude of smaller projects like bigger and better space telescopes, potential Earth impactor monitoring, and space-based satellite monitoring of any number of things that they'll never get around to with present budgeting.

I always knew that when Neil Degrasse Tyson was taking a break from guesting on the Daily Show that he was orbiting Earth in a cloaked penis shaped spaceship.
