Space exploration has a decent safety record because we have not entered the age of commercial space exploration...

It's been gradually ramping up with things like the Inspiration4 and Axiom missions, but still relatively slow. Yuri Gagarin's historic flight is further from today than the Wright Brothers' flight is from Yuri Gagarin's flight.

Oh absolutely! And I'm honestly super excited for it even if Ill be an old man by the time it happens. However, we still have quite a few major technology gaps before it will really ramp up. I'd expect it will continue to warm for the next 15-20 years before it really even begins.
