I'm 100% pro space exploration. The Moon is a puddle jump away. shuttle to and from sounds good. But I find it hard to believe that in 20 years or less we're going to be able to manufacture usable rocket fuel on Mars via robots. But then, I'm no rocket scientist.

I'm sure the solution is quite easy. I mean, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to solve this problem ... oh ... well ... nevermind.

Some people had similar doubt about the moon after JFK's speech in 1961. I have my doubts, but time will tell.

This sounds realistic. I also am convince that moon station will be use for more then just exploration. Military would be very interesting to explore new weapon technologies and how to protect homeland from hostile states.
