re: #8 EmmmieG

There goes my dream of living on the moon in the 51st state.

Phil Plait has a good take down of this moon idea within 8 years, even while he and most of us think it is a valid goal. The bottom line is simply that financially it would destroy NASA by leaving nothing else funded, and technically we couldn’t do it the way he describes in that time frame anyway.

Typical Newt pandering.
