  • 5 reasons NASA is da best.
    My five reasons:
    1) Makes Earth a better place
    2) Extinction prevention
    3) Offshoot technology
    4) Economy
    5) Exploration and Imagination

    Summary: 1 in 4 Americans thinks NASA's budget should be reduced. I feel this stems from misunderstandings like how much NASA actually gets in the first place. I tried to shed some light on some of the work NASA does from my personal experience to make a case for why NASA is one of the best investments we make with our tax dollars.

    The biggest issue I have with people saying "why are we funding NASA when we still have issues with homelessness etc..." is that they have no intention of funding solutions to those issues. They just want to defund nasa

      Have you looked at the stuff that NASA is responsible for? SpaceX is taking already established technologies and making them better. But, without NASA's original efforts SpaceX wouldn't be around today. I hate government spending, but acknowledge that governments can afford to not make money on an endeavor, so NASA might hit a lot of dead ends, but some of those unexplored roads will lead to things like Velcro or memory foam. These are things that profit driven companies might not have ever discovered since a profitable company needs to make money... and it only makes sense that they would invest in items they can market and make profit from.

      It says a lot about the average human when most people are more interested in Hollywood gossip than new scientific discoveries. I have to wonder how many brilliant scientists question whether they are really doing the "right thing" by developing technology which enables so many simple minded humans to exist on this planet. How are the humans somehow more important than the dolphins, lions, or rhinos?

    I love this video, not only because it highlights how NASA needs a budget INCREASE, but how NASA has been able to get by for years with just that half a penny. If we gave NASA just a little more, bring it up to maybe a full penny and a bit more, imagine what we could do. I'm looking at NASA for a career in about 10 years time or so (im only in high school rn lol), and mark rober was one of the people who showed me how cool being a soace engineer is. Thanks for the inspiration, Mark!

    This is literally the best thing I've heard all day and struck me in such an amazing way. It's amazing to think that me or one of my friends or another middle schooler/ high school could be the first one on Mars. I love this statement!!

    Goddammit, these videos are so awesome Mark. I've been watching you for a couple years now and cannot get enough of your go-getter attitude and your excellently simplistic delivery of these videos. This channel has not only made an impact on me, but millions of others. Consider this a thank you, from me to you :).
