How about another biggie... Digital Imaging .. AKA ... MRI, CAT Scan, Ultrasound all these came from space research ....

So I'd say millions of lives have been saved with just what I've mentioned ..... And that doesn't include all the medical laser stuff that comes from the same programs .....


The thing about the water, is the fact that our moon will be capable of supporting life ....
