Neil deGrasse Tyson might just be my favorite living person, other than the members of my family and my girlfriend.

Why the FUCK would you want to ruin him? He doesn't need to be there. You just need someone there who will listen and implement what he says.

People aren't looking up into the vastness anymore, but we're still dreaming. Only now, our dreams are in the smallest places we can look, nanotechnology. That's where our next future is coming from, not the moon. People have always dreamed, since long before NASA, and will continue to do so, even if we don't have a multi-billion-dollar telescope looking into the past. Aristochines didn't need NASA to dream, and neither do we. I have no real opinion about NASA, but Neil's argument is flawed. He tends towards flawed arguments frequently for such a prominent scientist, mostly when he's trying to sell NASA to the public.

We still need space. Quite apart from all the stuff we still need to learn about the universe out there, we need resources - energy, materials and room to expand.

We'll also need another home planet because you can guarantee if there's a way humanity could fuck nanotech up, it will. Accidentally or deliberately.

Trillions upon trillions of possible disasters can possibly happen before it.. but someday, our sun WILL die.

People forget you can get lost in space.

Hmm... there's something wrong in the comments... something's... missing...
