Didn’t the French do this exact same thing seven or eight years ago to show that paired photons remain quantum-bound even if they travel different distances? They produce the same interference pattern as paired photons which arrive at the same time.
Why would we be spending all this money to show the French were right?

Don’t put any money into it until we see whether he actually DOES go away in January 2017.
As slick as the ‘rats changed the senate rules recently, I’ll be surprised if they don’t change some more and if he isn’t declared President in perpetuity and NEVER leaves.

Can the US even send an human into orbit anymore?
Look up 'Falcon 9'.

NASA’s budget had been cut to the bone, then Sequestration cut it even further. We do not pursue greatness through research or space exploration any longer. Americans worship at the altar of Medicaid, Food Stamps, Social Security Disability, Medicare, ObamaCare, EITC cash refunds, Section 8 housing vouchers, TANF Welfare, and Unemployment checks.

“Perhaps, but such research is worthwhile if it could translate to the proliferation of our species across the galaxy.”
Humans as we know them will never live unprotected on another world. We developed and live in a soup of microorganisms. Our defenses were evolved to allow us to survive in THAT soup. Add one new organism to that soup and our defenses will not recognize it in time to stop it from giving us terminal Vegan Foot Rot.

Space is a convenient word used for the absence of things. Space is not something. Space can not be expanded.
