No no one was hurt.

They always launch rockets over the ocean specifically to avoid injury or property damage due to falling debris.

Only a small fraction of us are obsessing over space. I do it because I love exploring and I can't wait for all the beautiful lives and stories that will happen amongst the stars.

More space allows more people, and I love people.

But it is also hard to fix every problem in a closed environment. When people explore it seems obvious that it is a waste of time and resources since there is no way to know what they will find.

Explorers came to the Americas seeking gold, but what they found instead was timber and fertile soil. Those resources absolutely made life in Europe better.

But space has no timber or fertile soil! Exactly, we will go looking for places to colonize but find???? No idea, but if there is something out there that will make life better on earth, we won't know till we look.

Maybe it will be better to move heavy manufacturing off world so we don't pollute as much. Maybe stricter limitations on resources will lead to more efficient HVAC or water recycling. Worth a try.
