Don't care how their annual budget is figured. It's still a big waste. I'm not saying all of it. But someone please tell me why we are spending all this money to go back to the moon? And mars? That's like throwing a hail mary pass in the 3rd quarter.

So we should spend 15 billion dollars to create how many jobs? Most of those jobs would still be filled if we diverted the funds to something that is more practical and makes more sense.

Agreed. But for this topic alone, there is just a lot of waste. The moon stuff is what irritates me. I don't believe there is anything on the moon that's sooooo important that we need to spend money on it. Not right now anyway.
I couldn't agree more PQ. We should spend more money on space exploration?!? For what?!? Just for the exploration?!? How does it help us?! Whether there's water on the moon or not, does that change the way we live or should live? I'm not convinced.
