    NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft grabbed a fistful of rocks and dust from asteroid Bennu and returned the sample to Earth, dropping a capsule in Utah. It could contain clues about the origins of our solar system.

      Or something sinister that we've never had to deal with before.
      I believe bringing back samples from space and advertising our position in the Galaxy at this stage is irresponsible.

      ⁠​⁠@@quontumleeep9430If you believe that then you must think you’re a god who isn’t apart of the universe, or you’re comparing yourself to a rock asteroid.
      Look at the cells, elements and actions of what you’re body is made of.
      It’s similar to those rocks.
      Maybe not the same collection all in one, which is why it’s scientific fact that your biology is WAY cooler and stronger and scarier than ANY rock formation that circles earth that’s ever existed.
      Life forms need oxygen, water, carbon etc etc.
      That rock cannot hurt you in the same way a bacteria can. There’s no oxygen in space.
      This rock with further the protection of humankind.

      NASA is OAOA, it’s literally a space agency not ocean agency. We already have many scientists that research the ocean. The problem is politicians think it’s a good idea to give the military 80% of our national budget, and 1% to science.

      Are you four years old? Because why else would you believe in that childish fairytale.
      And what about the OTHER creation myth in Genesis:
      The Bible opens with two different creation stories. The accounts are similar in that they both describe the creation of animals, plants, and humans. But they are distinct in several ways and even contradict each other on key issues.
      For example, though the stories describe some of the same events, they order them differently. InGen 1, God creates plants, then animals, and then simultaneously creates man and woman. In Gen 2, God creates a human, plants, then animals, and later he divides the human into female and male. Additionally, the two stories employ different names for the deity. The first account uses the Hebrew word Elohim, meaning “God,” whereas the second uses the tetragrammaton, YHWH (often represented by “Lord”).
      The stories are also very different in literary style. The first account appears neatly organized into three days of preparation followed by three days of actual formation. Each day concludes with the formulaic expression “and there was X.” By the seventh day, all creation exists in its proper sphere, and God rests. This orderly pattern suggests an orderly universe. The second story (beginning in the second half of Gen 2:4 and continuing through the end of chapter 3) lacks both the structure and the focus of the first creation account. It is much less formulaic; rather, it is a dramatic narrative in a series of seven scenes.
      Because of these and other divergences, it is likely that separate authors with distinct theological views and agendas wrote these myths. The differences in the accounts reflect the unique way each author conceptualizes the deity. In Gen 1, God is distant, creating through speech according to a master plan. This image contrasts with Gen 2, where the author depicts God as a human-like figure who walks in the garden and, like a potter working with clay, has a hands-on, trial-and-error approach to creation. God in this version seems more accessible than the transcendent creator of Gen 1.
