Is human space exploration waste of time?

No, it hasn't. African populations have been exploding.

He keeps saying the human body is going to get fucked up on other planets, but
1. If we are going to colonize deep space we will most definitely genetically engineer our bodies to be most suited to a particular environment
2. There's no reason we can't use technologies in addition to our raw body to "thrive" in non-earth environment
3. IQ is not decreasing; 60~80% genetic refers to "heritability" which is completely different than what he is refering to; the source he cited is complete horseshit

There is literally 0 arguments coming from this post. There is a reason this post is on /pol/

It advances technology. A lot of everyday stuff was invented by NASA

IQ and societal success are strongly correlated.

Fight me Veeky Forums

we sent machines there on our behalf and soon they go explore on our behalf.

We did explore the sea as well even though our body is not made for swimming for weeks amirite?

Of course they are. IQ is pattern recognition. Success doesn't equal intelligence. Airbud had more money than you could ever hope to make. He was in many Hollywood movies, and was for more successful than you will be. Does that mean Airbud was smarter than you? You just admitted you were at a lower IQ that Airbud, because he was more successful.

I mean, we really haven't explored all that much of the sea. What's your point? We have explored more of space than we have of the oceans. There have been more people on the moon than have explored the Mariana trench.

>Success doesn't equal intelligence.
no, but there is a strong causal link between the two

>You just admitted you were at a lower IQ that Airbud, because he was more successful.
actually all i said was that iq and societal success are strongly correlated, you just got over defensive and made a lot of things up

Ok, so then what is your point? Your stating what everyone already knows. A higher IQ is indicative of more success. What's your point? Was that it?

>We have explored more of space than we have of the oceans.
You ready to bet money on that?
