https://weather.com/news/news/2018-05-24-goes-17-critical-cooling-issue-noaa Hey, easy in all the movies, maybe someday. At least the now dead Space Shuttle made it possible for a while. We are regressing when it comes to technology IMO. Hopefully just a pause, I know private companies are trying hard to keep us first in space. Space exploration and technology pushes us forward as humans IMO. I know we have plenty of problems now right here, just like we did when Megellan and Columbus explored the planet and spent large amounts of capital. We need to push forward and outward regardless the things pulling us back.

I can imagine the complaints...... "I just got SolarSysNet and the agent told me I'd be able to stream NetflixOffPlanet without a problem, but they LIED." "Where did my data go?? I just watched a couple of shows on HuluMars and now all my data is gone! What a ripoff!"

maratsade I'd leave the planet, literally. GabeU I watched it thinking it would be 'meh' but it really picks up!

We need to Terraform Mars. Earth is getting way too crowded and polluted.I wonder if you could get Hughesnet on Mars? What beam would that be?

Beam 4? There'd be slight higher latency. :p

Why not just fly up there and fix it? | Hughesnet Community

Love the title. :)

Hughes' direct competition is having a little issue with their new satellite, as well. Antenna problems, evidently. Maybe after flying up and fixing that one they can swing by and fix the antennas on this one. LOL. The real question is, who's gonna spring for the extra gas? :p

  Well, it's not going to be the Romulans, that's for sure. It's a Federation issue.
