Kiss the Ground (2020)
Too one-sided. Not enough details about potential health risks
This show is informative but leans toward those hippie dairy farmer mentality of selling raw unpasteurized milk. Raw milk DOES carry dangerous germs, and made MANY people SERIOUSLY sick. Me included as kid back in early 60s. The show only talks about carbon fixing soil by drawing CO2 from atmosphere which is noble. The show never mentions Nitrogen fixing soil by by rotating crops planting legumes (beans) which are nitrogen fixing to refertillize soil naturally. All smart farmers know this. Nothing new. I'm not sure how this cover crop business works if they are not nitrogen fixers. All smart farmers understand other plants compete for soil nitrogen even weeds. That's why farmers want to eradicate them. The unwanted plants hog the nitrogen. The parts of show that talks about composting onsite fields can be downright dangerous. That part about composting human feces in Haiti villages is nothing but reckless and dangerous for e-coli outbreak from hell. WE sure don't want to follow cow grazing or human uncomposted dung land with food crops or free grazing chickens pecking fresh cow dung. We all read about food recalls from e-coli and salmonella contaminated agriculture. It's exactly because of plants and animals exposed to uncomposted dung loaded with harmful bacteria. It can be recipe for disaster and probably why the USDA hasn't bought in yet. I encourage the show producers to make part 2 to explain more. One thing I believe will greatly help the problem of soil erosion and dust pollution is for the government to STOP STOP subsidizing farmers not to grow crops. The stupid ass government mandates to farmers to qualify the land must be plowed bare dirt. If you fly over the great San Joaquin Valley in California at 20,000 ft during crop times you can see for yourself. Half the land is bare dirt blowing away top soil dust storms. This is our government at work paying farmers not not grow crops. And California is eat up with air pollution?? Go figure.
Return to Space (2022)
No real learnings for us taxpayers that fund this
Musk won 1.5 billion dollar contract with Nasa. Who pays? American tax payers do. The problem is throughout the history of space travel going back to Apollo is we pay hundreds of billions of dollars never really learning anything. What to hell is accomplished for our money? Learnings are top secret for military industrial complex and private industry for profit. All we see for our money is cocky, arrogant astronauts and their personal stories. Who cares. Who cares about the blonde ratting her hair in space. Nasty not informative. Who cares about the dinosaur toy the astronaut smuggled? Yippie. Wow real informative. Who cares about Alan Shepard batting golf balls on moon. All we ever see is space Hollywood fluff from NASA and This show Musk mooching for share for the trillions dollars we pay. Every once in a blue moon Nasa throws us a bone fake artist renditions of telescope photos. Yippie. Musk cleverly moans the blues about how much he personally spent. Which in truth all he is after fat contracts with Nasa (TAXPAYER MONEY) and a never ending fountain of our tax dollars. Which he got. Flip flopping allegiance between job hungry former NASA big shots and astronauts versus the the Industrial Complex turn coat Astronauts is silly ass laughable. Who are they trying to BS? Contact your Congressional Representative and shut it down. Us taxpayers are burdened enough without this belligerent waste of our money.
Challenger: The Final Flight (2020)
extraordinarlly disastrous decisions made by incredibly stupid rocket scientists
Very informative. Tragic loss of life and waste of billions dollars taxpayer funding. And damage to USA reputation. Totally preventable. NASA and Thiocol with all the kings men couldn't add 2+2 and see the connection between simple O-rings failure relationship to freezing weather when the evidence was in their face. We in oil gas industry know temperature/ pressure/ chemical limitations of O-rings and gaskets. It's inexcusable how an army of rocket scientists can miss this. Except for mindless bureaucracy and Macy Day Parade balloon sized egos.
