@YouReallyAreThatDumb But, how would they know where to start the fix if they don't understand it all yet? You can't just randomly start fixing things without knowing where to start, what to fix and what impact that fix might have on other things.

man, how many people canceled before they got this guy to do this video. Makes it seem like we never launched a vehicle into space before.

@YouReallyAreThatDumb I was going to say "Your name kinda says it all" though that would've been rude :P

Just because us humans have been living on this planet for many centuries, doesn't mean we actually know every single detail of our own planet. So that's why NASA is also studying Earth so get to know more about our own planet.

@YouReallyAreThatDumb That's too easy =/
