.
Not to worry — we’ll find a way to travel faster than the speed of light.

I certainly hope so.  We'll either need FTL travel or zero point energy to cross the distances between the stars. Without one or the other, I just do not see how space travel could be possbile. I do not believe it is our destiny to live and die on this little blue marble.

The perps you are thinking of ref AGW and islamobuttkissing are political appointees and senior exec service bureaucrats.

Down in the trenches are a bunch of dedicated civil servants, scientists, and engineers. Most are Republicans which is why Obozo wants to scrap the manned space program.
