too many risks, too many liabilities, too much of a hazardous job.
By this "logic" we wouldn't have planes, trains, cars, coal mines, nuclear power plants, electricity, running water, oil, modern medicine and just about anything because of "too many risks".
Risk takers and innovators are what get things done. Not people who sit there and go "Nope! Too risky."
You're right, those are definitely dangerous jobs and not too many people can handle them.
Just saying that space is not habitable. No oxygen, no water supply, no agriculture, VERY HIGH RISK POTENTIAL etc.
At least with the careers you posted their is oxygen and businesses available to the workers/clients. Not so much in space.
Would be worse than being stranded in the mountains.
OK.
Deep sea welding, shipwreck scavengers, any job under the sea.
Just because you wouldn't take the risk because you're too scared, doesn't mean others wouldn't to progress our knowledge.
Space is a totally different ball game.
nobody wants to actually go into space.
You said that before and got proven wrong.
Or do you just ignore that which contradicts what you type?

I'm not the same person who posted the youtube videos.
These are just videos I've been researching lately and I think the evidence is obvious.
Watching you tube videos is NOT research. Assuming this thread isn't simply an effort to increase ad revenue (BTW this is still what I think this thread is about) it would seem you have an inquiring mind. Use it.
Please take some science courses in pretty much any institution of higher education. Trust me, you will come to know what research is all too well!

In the case of pictures not showing any stars, it has to do with the exposure settings on the cameras.
The surface of the moon was very bright because it was always sunlit. In order for the pictures taken by the astronauts to NOT be overexposed in this bright setting, the cameras' exposure settings were set low. Those exposure settings were similar to the exposure settings for a picture taken on Earth in daylight. This setting was too low for stars to be captured in the images.
Of you had a camera (one that was able to have the settings set manually), and set the exposure for "daylight" settings, and then tried to take a picture of a very starry night sky -- one in which stars are very visible to your eyes -- the images you end up with will most likely show no stars either.

Then why is there a waving United States flag during the moon landing?
The flag wouldn't be waiving around in space because there is no wind or air.
You can't educate this type of person.
