Default Neil DeGrasse Tyson headed down same loony road as Carl Sagan?

Towards the end, Sagan, formerly a productive astrophysicist

might be going the same way, or, he could just be trying to
promote another book. "Publish or perish?"

Opposing the militarization of space isn't loony, even if it is
a political stance one might disagree with.


Opposing something that is inevitable is stupid.

On the other hand, taking Trump's "Space Force" seriously...
particularly as he seems to think that Russia is our friend
(hey, bailing you out of your last bankruptcy will do that to
people)... now _that's_ loony.

Your TDS is hallucinating again.
