The journey to Mars should be a world wide ambition.

Exploration is how humanity moves forward and prevents stagnation.

The moneys are well spent, there is risk, there is a cost, there are downsides, but the payoffs can be utterly unexpected and revolutionary that change the course of humanity.

This is not obvious to all, and you hear some short sighted arguments against it, but in the end, we explore because it's in our blood as a species. It is one reason why we are so successful at over 6 billion strong.

g i joe game on august 4th adn the movie on the 7th are a priority

also making sure we can live together on a big arse palnet so we can move poeple into a tiny little space station isnt a bad idea and since we have a billion years to figure that out i say take our time and go slow on space travel and get it right.

if people are upset about what is going on then send nasa a donation to help otherwise you are getting upset aout something that has nothing to do with you
