Okay I understand needing Nasa for satellites for phones, the military or whatever. But why waste money on a space station, going to the moon, sending
rovers to mars? To most people around my age I know, and myself it seems like a big waste of money.
Going to the moon, okay been there done that. There's the whole "what did we miss" thing, but really not much. Then there's the belief that going
to the moon is a goal to unite Americans or whatever like when they first went. But now no one really cares, we have been to other galaxies, and
universes in movies, and video games. The moon doesn't sound impressive.
Same with mars, or a comet. I know it's "for science" but would it really help anything?
The space station is to do what exactly? Go a little further, and last a little longer in space? Why?
I think the money could be better spent. Keep the satellite radio, and four bars on my phone. Keep the solders, and country safe. That's all we need.
I never understood why a country always complaining about money wastes it on things that are unimportant.
At least I don't understand the importance. When I was little I thought it was to escape earth before something happens to destroy it. Now that I'm
a little wiser, I'm clueless why we need to go where no man has gone before.
