Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Bonus question: what if both options are for warfare in WWIII?

I’ve always wanted to be crammed into a tiny spaceship with a big fuck-off telescope and the collected works of humanity loaded on the computer, and be launched perpendicular to the plane of orbit. (This is, by necessity, a one-way trip, as it would take a very very very long time to get far enough for good data)

We don’t actually know what the galaxy looks like from a top-down (or bottom-up, depending on how you choose to view it) perspective so it would be a really unique experience and would send very useful information back…. probably. Eventually.

So I’d definitely take the space station. Not the same, but close enough.
