Don't get me wrong, anything that sets us a little further into the cosmic ocean than just ankle deep as Carl Sagan would say. Im absolutely for it.<br /><br />But why the moon, that important step was completed in the cold war by the previous generation. For me just stepping off world would be a dream. But who wants to be Moon man #26 when they can be the Earth Invader #1 on Mars.<br /><br />God give this generation something to really shoot for and not back track. I feel goverment space organizations should be the path finders....and then let the business enterpuers/explorers pave the way in thier wake.<br /><br /><br />Leave the moon to homesteaders. Get our butts to the nieghboring planets NASA...I want a memory of exactly what I was doing when that would happen....or hell I want to remember throwing a mars rock and laughing like a school girl as we dig up fossils.<br /><br />Only "Where was I moments" I have right now is 9/11 and on the bridge of a destroyer bombing the crap out of Baghdad at the begining of the war.
