      We need to send all the billionaires and politicians to space to experience the Overview Effect so they can realize we need to collaborate and stop worrying about our slight differences.

        I had to read this twice to confirm, but it sounds like you’re intending to bring them back from space with this plan?

            Due to budget cuts the heat shield for re-entry was cut. Thanks to these budget cuts we gave everybody in the lower echelons of your company a big fat bonus.

            We hope you have a pleasant stay in space.

            It would be a shame to launch all those expensive satellites just to bring them back down immediately.

            I think slingshotting the rich people around the sun should be considered, even if they just wanted to go to orbit. We can tell them its for the coolness factor.
