On your blog take one of the two opinions:
a.) You think the project is a good idea
b) You think it is a bad idea
I think this is a bad idea. There are so many more important areas to focus on that will be immediate. I want more focus on how we can get children to be more involved in community activities. $20 million to promote "green" environment for the earth. Sending something to space to see what happens is pointless. You spend all this money just to have something go wrong and then entire mission is scrapped. $20 million can provide thousands of laptops, school books, community programs. As this man said, there are only 2 kids interested in this plan. I bet we could get way more kids interested in how to save rain forests, help other students get healthy. The government run space program is a dud. Why throw more money into this!! I really think Google should invest $20 million into our children and not empty space. Earth is in serious need of help. We need to start fixing, not just put on a big ass band-aide!!!
Or they can give me some and I will start a sanctuary for little breed abused dogs!!

Well as I do not agree with the whole green planet save the world. I might be still harbor angry little thoughts from the war, but that said giving children better education materials or even those St. Jude kids. Not that there not funded already. So I agree that 20 million dollars could fund better goals. The private sectors has a lot more pressing issues to worry about than trying to watch a movie broadcast from the moon.
ReplyDeleteWell... because it is google funding this and not the government, I think it's a pretty good idea to advance technology. Google is all about communication and bringing the world together, so this project is right up their alley.
ReplyDeleteI think it would probably be pretty good as it does humanitarian things like unification between countries and it improves on interstellar communication. Furthermore, the open source idea on it is pretty fantastic as then anyone can be involved. I remember there was a show I watched a long time ago where all space technology was owned by the richer countries and all the poor countries just got poorer. The idea of open source and completely shared ensures that something like that will never happen, and I hope it doesn't ^_^.
GOOGLE does contribute to education too!
