Return to manned space flights

I pay back student loans

Education should be free anyway.
-
I spent tons on my daughter, I agree with you.

It already is up through grade 12. And still look at all the functional illiteracy there is. I say spend the money on more police and throw people in jail that don't study hard enough. How's that sound? Mandatory education requirements or slave labor!Education should be free anyway.
Win win.

Yep, I watched that live today - pleasantly surprised that it took off at 7:05, when they said chances were '40%' of a launch today.
-
It went up and came back down so a successful test launch

Why not colonize the moon first? just saying.
-
Nothing of value there I imagine. Why colonize a wasteland? Probably lots of valuable stuff on Mars.

Actually, I'd bet one of the first things we do to the moon is start mining it.

I'll bet Mars is more valuable.

In the very long term - yes. However, the moon's much closer, and therefore cheaper to traffic things back to Earth, so you can bet that the moon will be the location of the first extraterrestrial base.

Can't argue with that. If they have crafts that can land and take off again without being launched the moon would make a handy waystation.

Well, I prefer an asteroid traveling in our immediate part of our solar system,
so we could mine it for rare earth minerals, and cool gems, then when
the asteroid orbits around closer to earth, all they would have to do is
shoot it to the earth.
I should have been a scientist...
But seriously, the mars rover, I read, has found indications of a lake.......
we need some amazing, futuristic propulsion system that can warp ten.
Like, at least half of light speed. Which about 186,000 something per second. Feet or yards....
I think it was.

Why not use the moon as the testing ground for all the techology that will be needed to colonize Mars. How do we even know we
have the basic power systems needed to do it? Think of all the questions about radiation traveling to and from Mars. This will have
to be an international effort. All the best minds on earth will have to come together for this to happen.......just like in the movies.
Traveling to Mars and back does not to be a suicide mission. Would you want be on that first flight?

I'm sure that NASA has the expertise to make it happen.

the top 10 centimetres of regolith (moon soil) at the south pole of the moon appears to hold about 100 times the concentration of gold of the richest mines in the world,
-
There will be a moon base next week if word gets out soon on all that gold.

They have a base on the moon
