If NASA manages to disprove GlobalWarming™, it will have more than paid for itself, IMO.

Manned Space Flight is super expensive...advanced techniques like molecular nanotechnology may be required to reduce its costs to acceptable levels.

Watch China swarm outer space, watch on your Chinese satellite feed.

I disagree with you. I believe NASA and space exploration represents money well spent.

I have to agree with you.
Big waste of cash. Why do they call it the International Space Station when we are footing the majority of the bill.
It should be the United States Space Station with the International Food Court Annex.

When China holds the High Guard, will you feel vindicated?

Not going to try to change the mind of some one who has it made up. But you do remind me of several things. People used to say the world was flat... they found out is wasn't, They thought if man were meant to fly he would have been given wings... today flight is a fact of life. Columbus' expedition was considered a waste of money. Flight was considered a waste of money. So you would rather enable the victim mentality of another generation of "Plebes" than take a leap of faith. Good for you. You can stay here on earth with both feet on the ground while the rest of us reach for the stars and our dreams.

The mere fact that you can sit at a computer today is thanks to the space program. But its a waste of money. You remind me of a democrat.

Uh-huh. And China shooting down a satellite isn't of any concern to you?

Did you read the article? The cuts to NASA aren't going to save any money. And even if they did, you wouldn't get any of it. The 'Rats are just going to spend that money (and more) on their pet projects, which means "social programs".

My guess is that means increased welfare payments. More free money for people who stay home and don't do any work. Well, diss NASA and its workers if you want, but at least they show up for work.

So you're going to give up your computer?

The internet and the computer you access it with are all products of the space program.

OK, then we should give up our space program and let the ChiComs and the Russkies control the high ground of space.
