i dont see why we feel the need to always take over more more more.
i dont see us ever living on mars unless they can develop some way to live without oxygen which also means live without water.... not to mention that little detail about no gravity.... what about the fact that mars is even further from the sun than we are.... what kind of habitat would that be?
if i had the option of eliminating one gov't funded program, NASA would be gone in a second...
i believe that paying taxes is really just purchasing a share in public benefit... im not getting my share of space programs. when you arent satisfied with a product or service, what do you do? return the product or stop buying the service. well i want my money back.
i think it is especially stupid to continue spending money to go to the moon.... we spend millions of dollars to go to the moon way too often and we bring back a bunch of stupid rocks.... i can go to my driveway and get some rocks, i dont need to spend millions of dollars to do it, either.
