The fair trade mentality makes people think they need to offset going to space with some carbon reducing activity when in reality the net gain would be bigger if they did both the offset and not going to space.
That depends on the value you ascribe to them going to space. I do think that being in the great stagnation is a big problem and I think it’s good that new space technology gets developed and this event is part of the development of new space technology.
In general there are always option that can be taken to optimize more into one direction. In a public context like this calling for maximalist position is unlikely to change actions.
