I don't know about "drinkable" though. It'll turn you blind at best.

I always say in response to this point that we can probably do 2 things at once, there are 8 billion of us. We could probably stretch to fixing 8 things simultaneously if we really wanted to.

It always baffles me when people say that we gotta fix everything on Earth before we go to space when countless inventions and innovations that make our modern lives even remotely possible are a direct result of space travel. Just to name a few; disease and medical research, better understanding of physics, advances in computing, GPS, weather prediction and tracking, solar panels, and the Internet. You don't have to get excited, but to say we shouldn't go to space is a very short sighted argument.

I mean I don’t like that Haber made chlorine gas, but I like fertilizer. I’m happy that I have fertilizer, but Haber can go fuck himself for his role in chemical warfare.

I’m pretty hyped about having food.

I’m pretty hyped about Starship too.

Gotta do both at once. Fix the problems and get all the eggs out of a single basket.

Glass is mostly quartz, which is made of silicon and oxygen, which are pretty common elements in planets' makeup. It's all about the temperature, pressure and atmosphere at this point

It rains diamonds on some planets

And without space exploration and the quest for it, you wouldn't have a lot of those tangible things.

Stuff out there impacts life here - sometimes literally - all the time. It's "cool" that you'd rather ignore it, but you're very wrong that we'll never see or have to deal with it in some fashion. Not to mention the scientific advances from observing the behaviour of something we previously thought couldn't exist.

Man, I'm just trying to hustle enough to pay my rent...

The subtext to that is if you don't find space fascinating, you probably don't have a very good imagination, or much going on between your ears.
