I just can't get out of my head the dual purpose of things like this. They say it is for the betterment of humanity but yet they are weaponizing space. I am pretending to be naive by the way. Like I don't know... hahaha I sure hope they suceed. Fingers crossed. No challenger PLEASE.

If it makes you feel any better, SLS is far too expensive to be used for anything other than human space exploration (some would argue even for that).
