The only non-bazinga space person i know, who is also a (sort of) public figure is Dr. Fatima, and she left academia because it was full of bazinga astrophysicists: https://youtu.be/R7hK5_Rj--8

So yeah, good call Ms. Rodrigo. I like playing KSP and astrophysics is fun, but the beauty in this earth is enough to last several lifetimes, so if given a choice, I'd rather share kinship with what's around here than what's out there.

Thanks for the link she's awesome. New favorite youtuber. I just finished the 'What Astrophysicists Think About Aliens' and her analysis of the Drake equation was excellent.
