What's so good about going to space?  It's got novelty value, but when that wears off........it's just a pointless exercise.


Yeah, what good has ever come to society from going into space? Holy crap, some people are naive.

Just the huge array of technological spin-offs including communications satellites Wink

Unfortunately the liberal voting Luddites wished it never happened of course Sad

It's what they are putting into space that counts. Maybe think about that the next time you use your GPS Wink



Don't have a GPS, I even turned down a free one on principle.  I have a device called a "map" that does the same job. 


What you have is ignorance Honky. You show it in economics, in your attitude to racism and right there. It's a pity, you're capable of critical thinking I know.
