Affording ourselves insight into the cosmos I think is unreservedly progressive.

If Paris can move graveyards and cemeteries underground for progress, surely something similar can be arranged to enable progress on the one hand and afford people the ability to honor their ancestors and culture.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I fully agree that looking and moving towards the stars is progress we should be working towards and doing so delicately if necessary. There are too many fixable and silly-things happening in the world today that absolutely demolish our ability to progress as a society.
