@luisdanielmesa "you're still here though" I'm only here for the comments, and you provide plenty of entertainment with yours :D.

@godfather7339 what is the cost/kg to LEO?

@Bacteriophagebs how long were the shuttle missions compared to crew dragon missions? What is best, 7 people for 4 days or 4 people for 7 days?

@Bacteriophagebs "Seems about the same." Indeed. The problem for your argument is that the space shuttle's longest mission was 17 days, compared to 5 months (planned) for Dragon capsule. So 4 people for 150 days = 600 peopledays vs. 7 people for 17 days = 119 peopledays.

@Bacteriophagebs with you saying that, I assume you'll accept my point of view and reject your own once the mission lasts 5 months?

@Bacteriophagebs that is besides the point so stick to the topic. We are comparing the STS with Falcon 9+Crew Dragon here now. 600 persondays vs 120. If the only thing you have to say why 600 isn't 5 times as good as 120 is "we'll see if it lasts that long", then if we actually see that you have to admit that it is 5 times as good.

@Bacteriophagebs do you honestly think it is even likely that they'll end the mission beforehand, given how involved NASA (and JAXA) are? TBH though, there isn't much more to say than that I really, really, really hope you'll remember this conversation and start question yourself a bit more once they splashdown in late April or early May. It is important to question things, but that includes questioning yourself.

@originator4649 it is really sad what happened, but when we do the real talk it has to be a part of the discussion.

@originator4649 when comparing what you get for the money you spend on the different launch options, safety has to be one of the things you look at. Most people say it is the absolutely most important thing, and I agree with them. If you disagree with this, you would essentially say that crew dragon would be better if it didn't have a launch escape function, because it would make it cheaper to launch.
