'I hope they take a camera': Astronaut Jim Lovell talks SpaceX moon mission

Warning: I curse a lot.

NASA did all of this and more 50 years ago.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!??? A MOON MISSION CREATED BY TWO ANONYMOUS ASSHOLES IS THE BIGGEST SHIT IN SPACE SINCE ARMSTRONG!

Sorry to yell but this guy is entirely missing the point. Watching badass military pilots turned into astronauts fly to the Moon in tin cans is one of the greatest things humans have done. Those guys are all heroes and that includes all the engineers and the ladies in the basement and every single person involved including the goddamn janitor.

But when I see just two Joe Schmoe Nobodies go to "the Fucking Moon"?? That means I MIGHT GO TO THE MOON!!! That means ANYBODY might be able to fly by the Moon. The fucking MOON, y'all.

THAT idea is FUCKING INCREDIBLE! Seriously, civilians are going into space and not only that, they're going to travel farther than professional astronauts up to this point! Incredible!

Sorry but this gentlemen seems a bit jaded to me. This is an announcement I've waited my entire life for - assholes go to the Moon! Haha, I am 150% serious - if these two rich guys can go - they open the door for the entire civilian space flight and space tourism industry. Who doesn't want that?
