Russian Cosmonauts Return to Earth After Record Stretch on ISS

Sending humans to space is an extraordinary feat, but is it necessary? With the immense costs, risks, and outdated technology involved, it may be more prudent to focus on robotic missions. These are more efficient, science-driven, and cost-effective, providing valuable insights without risking human lives. As we face urgent challenges on Earth, such as climate change, redirecting resources from human spaceflights to solving problems here could be a more responsible choice. While human missions inspire, the same goals can often be achieved through advanced robotics, sparing lives and resources.
