Biden Administration to Consult with Navajo About Human Remains on the Moon

Man, my eyes are getting bad. I could have sworn the said "Biden Administration To Consult With Navajo About Human Remains On The Moon"

Wow! I'm not religious at all. So maybe I am just being an insensitive prick about this, but I really don't care if someone wants their remains to be on the moon and I don't care who it offends. It's the moon.

There is no way in hell I would stop and consider the feelings of any religious group about a planetary body that isn't Earth.

I also think that sending human remains to the moon is a complete waste of time, money, and resources. The only way a flight like this makes any sense is as a precursor to a manned mission.

Someday in the near future I expect there to be some kind of long term living space on the moon. When that happens, at some point someone will not make it back alive. It seems perfectly reasonable to me if their remains stay there permanently.

I don't know. Maybe that's just me. I'm not in a position to be anything more than a single voice. The whole thing seems really kinda dumb.

What a stupid idea.

(Apply liberally to both sides of debate.)

Why are people obsessed with scattering ashes on the fucking moon in the first place?

The Navajo had best get over it. OR, they can assert their dominance by going to the moon and removing the remains themselves. Wide open for them to do so.

All the things this country could do to make amends to the indigenous populations and we end up giving them this useless pandering. Are we sure this isn't an onion headline?

It's the fucking moon, nobody owns it. Hell, nobody can currently even live there. We shouldn't wreck it, but nobody can call dibs on it either, lol.
