I have been recently seeing antispace exploration talks with some other folks and am dismayed at their lack of imagination and curiosity. The science behind it has born some good technical developments and someday some large breakthroughs.

I did notice one statement I think was a typo.

“re-entering the earth’s atmosphere at 1,870 miles per hour” I believe that 18700 miles per hour, a even more fantastic figure. That is the minimum speed require to maintain orbit.

of course, we have to consider that space programs take time to progress in, and therefore we must start preparing now, before it’s too late and we run out of resources.

Let me give you one good reason. The continuation of the species. We literally have all our eggs in one basket. If man stays in one place, here on earth, we will go the way of countless species before us. Extinct.

Sadly, you are unaware of NASA spin-off technologies. Sadly, you are not interested in basic research.
Good for you, I can’t wait to see Rosetta and New Horizons at work…

Is understanding all of this REALLY relevant for today? And how many qualified jobs are you talking about? People have to fund what is relevant for today, and space is really not relevant to the public. Only a select few. Let’s focus on what’s really important to the people, instead of nebulous desires that are not feasible.

Space exploration is very important indeed, space programs develop new technologies and to create highly qualified jobs. Spending money on space programs is far more useful than wasting money on unemployment benefits. Also the exploration of planets and other celestial bodies can give important scientific results as understanding the origin of life or of the Solar system. We can’t whine about the debt, the political problems and other stuff. The public debt will always be huge, even in 1000 years. Let’s move on.

Lets try ocean exploration for the biological reasons to benefit mankind. We know less about ocean exploration then we do space .

I can’t say I disagree.

We burn 100,000 kg of fuel so that a rich guy can go weightless and say WOW.

Maybe, we should be exploring ways to live on this planet without destroying it, instead of looking to colonize the moon or mars. Both places make Antarctica appear outright hospitable. At least it has air and water, both of which are lacking in space.

The space race seems to be fueled by greedy scientists with misguided motives who want their pet projects funded by playing on people’s Star Trek inspired imagination. If scientists can’t do any better than fantasize about space, then maybe we don;t suffer from the lack of scientists, but from having too many already. It seems that most science graduates end up working in shady business areas like Defense, Pharma, Agro, Bio Tech, where they plot with their capitalist backers on how to invent something that will eventually threaten the world. For every scientist doing worthy work, there are probably 100 who do what greed asks them to.

How about we train more people in organic farming, or sustainable life style and shut down a few science departments.
