Legacy should be more than what we do for our families. The Sentinel mission is an opportunity to address a knowable and tangible threat to our civilization. Technology for technology’s sake is interesting. A mission to save the planet is riveting.
Projects B612 undertakes are not just in the purview of large space agencies anymore. Private companies and nations now can compete with more ideas, more innovation and sometimes, collaboration. I think this takes the space industry, space science, and exploration to a whole new level.
