exploring the galaxy.

In order to not be dicks and go explore space, we'd need to get rid of r/spacedicks.

You could at least link the original site.

I think the point, here, is to imagine what we could accomplish if we all worked together. Maybe without the Cold War we'd have never reached the moon, but maybe without World War One we'd have reached the moon decades before we did? If we pooled our resources (of minds and matter) maybe we would have made the moon into a space fuel station and have made manned missions to Mars by now.

I bet we'd explore the galaxy if we were bigger dicks.

jc_dntn · 9 months

I bet if we were big dicks we could fuck galaxies.

rip_u_raw4 · 9 months

I bet we could explore the galaxy if we could stop reposting the same shit for like five minutes...

sonovel · 9 months

Hey asshole! Our galaxy is a barred spiral and looks nothing like that shitty picture.

bloodflart · 9 months

I bet we could stop reposting if we just stopped being dicks for like 5 seconds.

smileshighs · 9 months

We will explore the galaxy someday. It is our destiny to return to the stars

KingOfCosmania · 9 months

I bet we could go and find something original to post if we could stop reposting this for like five minutes.

Battlesheep · 9 months

Alpha Centauri is over a Light year away, and it's the closest star. It takes far longer than 5 minutes to get there, so no

Whenever I play Black Ops and it says how much time the world has spent playing that game in the multiplayer lobby, I become curious as to what would happen if that time was spent developing our world.

Anryu · 9 months

Sometimes I just get so disappointed with the state of the human race. We've made all these advances in society and technology yet we're just too busy killing eachother over motes of dust on a speck of a rock floating in a near infinitely vast universe to work together as a united group. What a waste.

[deleted] · 9 months

Just think what we could do if we stopped reposting for like 5 minutes.

The420Turtle · 9 months

anybody else see the swastika in the stars?

the-vindicator · 9 months

:( just look at what those assholes did to NASA(sorry European Redditors)

i_fap_faps · 9 months

Bill Hicks said something very familiar.

[deleted] · 9 months

I don't think the technological advances to accomplish something like that will exist even in the next 10,000 years. I'm referring to not not being a dick, of course; the explore the galaxy thing should be pretty easy.

halfnakedandangry · 9 months

does anyone else see a swastika?

littlemange · 9 months

I love how the admonition to not be a dick has a giant swastika above it.

blacksunseven · 9 months

I don't care if this is a re-post I see like every 3 weeks, it couldn't be more true and I'll upvote it every fucking time.

thebraus · 9 months

lol. all i can think of is /r/spacedicks... im giggling right now....

mdrabz · 9 months

This is how I feel about the world. In a perfect world, or maybe not perfect but one where, as you said, we're not being dicks, everyone would have free education and healthcare and our biggest non-living expenditure would be in exploring the universe.

Alas, this is a future I don't think I'll ever see.

Billbobjr123 · 9 months

did someone say explore the galaxy?

supsky · 9 months

Was this supposed to be a reference to r/spacedicks?

Gestalt911 · 9 months

Can someone please remake this poster-sized, or could we get a source and I'll ask the author.

donkeypunch8 · 9 months

What about a collaboration of redditors?

SBJhehe · 9 months

Nu-uh! Your idea is stupid, just like you.

Now back to tipping cows for me!

ceri23 · 9 months

Sure wish we'd quite blowing trillions of dollars worldwide on wars and hurry up and get cracking on immortality. I think that's the one that needs the research bucks. We can solve M Theory and Holograph Theory after we get immortality figured out. Think about how much easier it will be to break shit wide open with the greatest minds having an infinity amount of time to ponder the universe. Plus, I'm very interested in the answers they come up with. Heck, I might go get a few PHDs with my free time and help.

downvoted for being a repost.

upvoted for being what I want to happen.

This is the ultimate truth. When the humanity finally avances and evolves, we will turn into the immensity of unknown that's around us. And at point, we we'll be back to where we came from, we will return home.

JLow1864 · 9 months

Or stop reposting..

CmndrFluffy · 9 months

The thought is all well and good, but its neglecting the fact that there wouldn't be any space exploration at all if it weren't for the Nazis. Nazi rocket scientists were some of the brightest and most innovative minds of their time and in their field. They constructed a rocket, not to be confused with a missile which is guided, that could fly by itself without input several hundred miles and land within a targeted area. Their understanding of solid- and liquid-state fuel, as well as a host of other innovations were the backbone of the American's space race. In fact, many Nazi scientists were granted amnesty and moved to the United States to work for the government. Now that's getting along... right after we finished murdering several dozen million people.

WHY do i have you tagged as indiandickburn in red??

The funny thing is, this is probably literally true.

I'm going to go ahead and be a dick here, but only because I see this every other week on Reddit. Seriously, it's getting old.

...I think I'm done now.

AnOldHobo · 9 months

Thanks for reposting something I posted a few days ago -.-

AytrusTekis · 9 months

This. THIS! Infinite THIS!

In other words I am someone who believes if we could stop pissing around with ourselves we could be way ahead of our current progress as a species.

All of my up votes to the creator of this image and those who believe and support it.

I apologize to everyone here for wasting all your money on my wars and entertainment gossip. I promise to change.

Crazy_likeafox · 9 months

I'm not the only one who sees the swastika? Right?!

Mariokartfever · 9 months

I bet we could stop reposting this picture too

Yasshole · 9 months

This is exactly why the Ancient Egyptians knew so much.

This quote is taken from something else. Stupid.

I bet we could explore new submits, if we could stop reposting shits for like five minutes

A lot of scientific and technological discoveries were done in the name of defense and war. Example: Gamma ray bursts were discovered by satellites built to detect nuclear weapons in space. I'd argue that without the Cold War we'd still be trying to go to the Moon.

Goddamn I love xkcd

danielvutran · 9 months

Not everyone is interested in exploration of space, because most are turned off the fact that we can't break einstein's light speed theory. The most anyone can do atm is observe. Being a dick / causing wars / economy related shit has no major effort in 'exploring' space. And if anyone brings up a fucking retarded argument about how if we focused more on space travel then we'd get to that point 'faster' is an idiot. technological /economical relativity. look it up.

we can waste more money in nasa, like we have for the past however many years.
