The Mars rover and the Texas catastrophe: Scientific possibility vs capitalist reality

[wsws.org]

{The Perseverance landing is a powerful demonstration of human cognition, science and reason. It is a powerful rebuke to the incessant contemporary glorification of irrationalism and a mighty vindication of the materialist understanding of the world. There are, in fact, objective laws of nature that humans can comprehend and act upon.}

I have occasionally made statements here that suggest our technical advancements are purposely being withheld from the public. Decades being lost in converting to natural energies over fossil fuels that these technologies have either been hampered or denied of existence that are or should have been highly advanced by now. The latest UFO exposure and the investigative program into them which has lead to previous acknowledged in means of energy and elements added to the elements chart. Patents recently acquired by the Air Force in relation to these elements and potential use and accomplishments. While we have a wonderful socialized system to create inequality to benefit the ruling class, we also have inequality towards keeping the common citizens struggling without technological advancement that's providable. We witness this in/after virtually every natural disaster and economic downfall no matter what the cause.

{More broadly, workers know that the methods employed to land a one-ton vehicle on Mars and make other scientific and technical advances should be used to solve social and economic problems, to provide sufficient jobs, education, shelter and food for all humanity. Society absolutely has the capacity to guard against global pandemics, environmental recklessness and nuclear-armed militarism, all of which threaten the life of every human on earth.

If the care that went into making and landing Perseverance had been put into preventing the pandemic, the coronavirus would be remembered as a tragic outbreak largely contained in China that killed thousands, not the largest global public health crisis in a century, which has killed millions.}

It's not like we had a warning. O! Wait! We did. It's not like we could have implied the same measures China did. O! Wait! We could have. At a drastically lower cost supporting citizens and a hell of a lot less deaths. It was a collaborate crime of both parties on how this occurred in the US as it was used to benefit so few.
