    Now I'm just imagining HBO doing a gritty Sesame St spinoff series where Big Bird experiences extreme survivor's guilt after the Challenger explosion.

    Just imagine an alternate timeline where Bigbird DID go up in the Challenger. Imagine kids watching that, imagine how Sesame Street would have handled that. Sad and crazy.

      Firstly, thank you so much for your continued support of the channel. It means a lot to us. Secondly, it would have been awful for sure. It already was, but that would have been horrible as well.

    Ham didn't get his name until after he landed. He was number 65 before his flight. NASA figured out that giving him a name beforehand might cause bad press if he died. He lived his remaining days in the National Zoo in Washington D.C..
    Ham died on January 19, 1983, he was 26. After his death he was going to be taxidermied and put on display at the Smithsonian. Public disapproval prevented that. Ham's skeleton is at the National Museum of Health and Medicine in Silver Spring, Maryland. The rest of his remains were buried at International Space Hall of Fame, in Alamogordo New Mexico.

    If he talk about all examples, the video would probably be 2 hours long

    It is sad that behind a lot of known safety for humans there are millions of dead animals.
    We should at the very least take account and remember this sobering fact.

    I don’t think that we need to worry about getting sick from alien pathogens for the same reason that we don’t have to worry about getting infected by a disease from trees, our biology is simply to different. What is a little scary is that we don’t know how viruses originally came to be on earth only that they may have been here for as long as life existed and virus look eerily similar to the nanomachines scientists today are inventing for gene editing.

      I mean, it really isn't a surprise that they look the same.
      Retroviruses especially do their thing by adding their genes to a cell's DNA that makes it replicate the virus. Literal gene editing.
      They look the same, because they're doing the same thing.
      For what it's worth viruses have also given plenty. When an egg cell gets virus DNA added to it there's a chance that it results in a mutation. This is how we got placentas and with them live births.

      @@Dr.HooWho yeah the panspermia theory is dubious at best and laughable at worst but it did lead to the best lovecraft story.
