Incredible that communication will reestablishes in October 15. Positivism. Perhaps these moments help to think and resolve some??

Di you expect the human race to be on this planet in 40, 000 yrs? I'm skeptical due to the hate and wars throughout the planet earth.

That’s what NASA deserves with their DEI, it doesn’t surprise to many people when it doesn’t contact in October

So another case of us polluting space. We have sent so much garbage into space that we can not or will not get back.
We have seen the results of our actions here on earth. The oceans are full of garbage, killing other species yet we continue to do it.
