The nine-to-five is dead, replaced by the two-to-two, staring at nebulae. This isn't just a hobby for the independently wealthy; it's a blueprint for a global workforce escaping the drudgery of urban centres. Why commute when you can commune with the cosmos? Your office is now anywhere with a telescope and an internet connection. Are you truly working if you are not gazing at the stars?
The strongest counter
Astrophotography remains a niche pursuit, a luxury for those with disposable income and abundant free time. It offers no scalable model for widespread employment or economic growth.
