re: #618 The Shadow Do
Silly, and not very progressive so to speak. Do you really think we are at a point where exploration is pointless? Seems a bit parochial for a smart guy like you.
No - I never said that.
Everything that can be accomplished by hoo-rah manned missions can be done better and more cheaply with unmanned probes. Trying to build a factory on the moon supposedly to save money on lift-off expenses for fantasized trips to - where, exactly? - is your classic boondoggle.
I’m for smart exploration.
