Oy.

Graffiti Artists Defaced Soviet-Era Buran Space Shuttle At Russian Space Center

 

There are always people who want to trash things just because they can. Seriously: if the Air and Space Museum was left unguarded for ten minutes, do you think that the Wright Flyer would somehow escape being splashed with BLM, Antifa or gang crap? Or just simply burned to ashes?

The gene pool needs a good cleaning.

Buran was an ill-conceived notion. A bad copy of the US Space Shuttle, somehow made *worse:* it was a pointless reusable payload shroud, it didn’t even bring the main engines back. Still… leaving such things to be turned to garbage by collapsing buildings and garbage humans is just insane.
