Thank you for asking this!!! Been obsessed with outer space since I was a little kid, so I’d do it in a heartbeat BUT only under one condition: if I’m going up there, I’d request to be part of a mission (big or small, doesn’t matter) that would either be conducting research to help future space missions, gather data about earth’s changing climate or help us understand more about other planets in the solar system.
Why?
Every space launch done in the history of humanity has required massive amounts of fuel and water to get the rocket successfully out of the Earth’s atmosphere. It’s necessary, but it’s unfortunately also expensive af and not the most environmentally friendly thing to do.
Even if I’m about to RIP very soon, I can’t in good conscience do more damage to this earth right as I’m about to leave it if I’m not at least doing something nice for the future of human kind in exchange.
So I might as well go out with a bang and do some good while I’m at it 🚀 ✍️ 🔭
