    Space Privatization With NASA landing their last space mission‚ the idea of making space exploration private comes into consideration. In my opinion‚ I believe that space travel should not become privatized. If it does become private‚ NASA’s efforts might fail repetitively‚ there’s too much people requesting to go into space along with too much money and effort to build these space crafts‚ and it is very dangerous for unprepared people to go into space. First of all‚ the efforts put into private
