This may go down in history as the most amazing (and maybe most expensive) art project of all time. I am just flabbergasted; this is astounding. I sincerely hope that the BFR comes to fruition in the way SpaceX has been billing it, and reasonably close in terms of timeline.

Honestly, this is beautiful. Let's fucking do it.

No seriously...let's do it. We're humans - this is the kind of funny, beautiful, impossible stuff we can uniquely do.

Capital allocation? Bleh, don't be so boring and uninspired!

Wouldn't it be easier to train astronauts to be artists than to train artists to be astronauts?

Can you even train artistic talent? Doesn't it require a natural gift that you're born with?

Not to belittle astronauts, but space travel training is more teachable than true art.

You likely could to a limited extent but artistry would not be their core competency.

I’m just fantasizing how it would be like, composing a song on my guitar in zero gravity while glazing at the stars. Whoever gets the opportunity, I cheer for you.
