ad astra!

Let’s make this Arizona law national!

Let’s question every single person in the streets and in the stores, in the grocery and in the hospital, in the public park or the private home, everywhere they are—let’s ask everyone, you and me and everyone else—if they have the legal right to stand upon this soil.

And if they do not, let’s round them up! Wall them into ghettos! Concentrate them into camps! Deport them back to where they belong! And if that proves to be such a cumbersome procedure, I’m sure we can trust our elected officials to come up with a Final Solution to the problem!

Here’s a video I made of the Saturn V rocket at the Davidson Center for Space Exploration in Huntsville, Alabama.

The Saturn V rocket is the most complex and powerful machine ever built by human beings, with the sole purpose of carrying us to another world. The reason why it’s so big is because it’s essentially 3 great big fuel tanks. 

as Neil deGrasse Tyson describes it:

“Leaving earth takes fuel, and you can’t refuel in space— so any fuel you’re going to burn you have to bring with you, which means the weight of the fuel you haven’t burned yet requires fuel to bring that weight into space for you. in other words, this entire rocket is nothing but fuel…

…I submit to you that this is the crowning achievement of human ingenuity and the fulfillment of dreams in the history of what it is to be human.”
