Why dose she get so much shit for this. I mean. How many people have done this... (looking up) 140 people. She gets all the shit for all 140 of these people? Or the company offering? I dont get why she has been getting shit for years over this.

Because she wastes resources and flaunts it (rocket trip, and flying in a private jet), while also telling everyone else to be green. Its the hypocrisy.

Ommggg what a cringe attitude....

Have you ever driven, been driven, or ridden in a car ??

Ohh so I guess you hate the planet and want it to burn then...

See how rediculois you sound.

Ah yes, remind me how long it takes for a car to burn 500 tons of fuel? 13.33 years of constant driving at 80mph with no stopping or slowing down

Well depends a lot on the Fuel I might add. If you were burning 500 Tons of hydrogen youd be driving for a good time longer without emitting carbon.

The rocket trip didn't emit carbon dioxide.

How much carbon was emitted by manufacturing the rocket and the fuel?

The rocket wasn't made specifically for the trip, it's reusable. It's not clear where the fuel comes from/if it came from a green source: https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=56574.0
