Space won't be the final frontier
summary
Moon Express plans a under $7 million mission to land on the Moon next year and claims lunar samples, helium‑3 and “16 quadrillion” dollars of minerals could become accessible; private firms already launch cargo to the ISS and suborbital flights (Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic) aim to carry civilians within 1–2 years. Hubble keeps delivering surprises — ten times more galaxies and water on Europa — while a shuttle launch accelerates to 17,500 miles per hour in about eight and a half minutes and humans remain roughly 10% human 90% bacterial.
