[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] <a href="http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,61937,00.html">Mars Mission a Trojan Horse?</a> A less ominous article than the headline suggests. Still, a nice way to prop up the ailing aerospace industry, garner some of that feel-good 20th century nostalgia, and get off scot-free when the next administration realizes the whole thing is a boondoggle and cancels it, where one interested in those ends. And while I'm being cynical, NASA's first move in its reinvigorated, vision-infused era? Scrapping the Hubble ahead of schedule. And now just to be snippy: What exactly do we get out of an expensive Martian photo-op again? Space exploration is incredibly sexy, and reminds us all of the good old days when we could assume our office buildings were safe, but is that enough? [/QB][/QUOTE]
