Mmmm, very interesting points to think about. The priority of space exploration is always a topic that comes up. Although I don't think I've heard the argument for focusing on DOGS (Design of Great Settlements). :) DOGS vs CATS, ha!
I think what I'm trying to do with https://spacehackers.club is to get more folks interested in hardware/software problem-solving in the context of what may be pervasive in the coming decades, which is increasing the human reach into the solar system.
Things I'd like to add
* jobs section like the ones mentioned in this post?
* open source projects involved in aerospace that are looking for contributors?
Would love to hear other ideas, join the keybase chat for spacehackers.
