Kinda fucked up tbh

Are we technically a space fairing civilization?
unfortunately i feel you can't call yourself spacefaring unless you actually control the ship, and we have about as much control over our trajectory as a mosquito has control over the amount of blood inside a blue whale

Well, maybe sooner than 2030... https://spacenews.com/musk-calls-for-deorbiting-iss-as-soon-as-possible/
i agree with him, provided we de-orbit it onto his skull

gotta keep someone up there to watch space just in case it gets the wrong idea
Well, someone needs to keep the lights on in the ISS....

You see, you just take out the 'I', and... oh.
i believe the USA is working on that right now actually

that would be the first time not all of humanity was on earth
You mean you don't think he's still out there?

Karman line could be a good limit sure, but I think the orbit still kinda makes sense to include "on the planet".
Say for example if the apartheid baby gets his Mars colony thing going, from Earth's perspective it wouldn't make much difference if a person is standing on Mars surface or on the orbit - we could say that the person is on Mars.
i'd say being in orbit is arguably the least on a planet can be, since an orbit is specifically continuing to miss falling onto the planet.

This must be a glitch someone's tweet from a different timeline went through ours.
Long term occupancy of the ISS started in November 2nd, 2000. Since then there has always been at least one person Manning the ISS.
So at least one human has not been on earth for every day since then, thus, all of humanity was last on earth on November 1st 2000. The statement is factually correct.

Being born after 2000 should be illegal
As a fellow old person, former millennial, I agree.

They're old enough to have finished a master's degree
That is so crazy don't say that

The loser has to go to space.
Oh no I'll 'accidentally' lose and finally be free from this world.

China will still have an operational station. Probably.
Cool! I had no idea that Tiangong space station was a thing.

You mean you don't think he's still out there?
no, he was found by aliens and respectfully returned in 1792
