158. Here is one thing NASA might help you do
IMPROVE your ability to feed them children.

They are working, among other things, on this silly shit called Hydroponics. What they need to do for space is far more efficient (the interest is there) than anything you could do on Earth.

So here is a direct result, that more efficient hydroponics may help YOU get a growing of food in places you could not imagine otherwise.

This is a DIRECT and easily understandable result of space flight.

Here is another... that computer you are using... it is called miniaturization. See Apollo was run with computers that took whole rooms... But they had to get the modules INSIDE a small capsule.

You sure that this would have happened without that little problem?

Don't worry, the ESA and others will do this. After all the US is a declining empire. We will go back to worrying just about ourselves.
