Guillermo Söhnleinm told Insider he has wanted to make humanity a multi-planet species since he was 11 years old, and that OceanGate was part of that ambition.
How about we, I don't know, just focus on innovating to make Earth a better place for a bit first?
Sending 1,000 billionaires from Earth to die by plummeting to the surface of Venus when Cardboard Cloud City fails would certainly make the Earth a better place.
How about not innovating with people's lives at stake? What a bunch of insufferable douchebags.
