The thought is there, but it's incorrect. It actually should be "more people have been to near earth orbit than this depth of the ocean." The Titanic sits at 2.4 miles below the surface (12,500 feet). The space station orbits at 250 miles above the earth, and that's near earth orbit. Outer space would be moon travelers, and there have only been 24.

Everyone has their thing, some people are into bird watching, so who is to say which hobby is better than the other? No one.

There is room in most people's empathy tank to reflect on them all, and since there is none left in yours, enjoy the Bimmerpost ignore feature.
