The Next Giant Leap For Mankind

I only wish they could speed it up. I agree that mothballing all the Apollo technology to move to the space shuttle was a huuuuuge mistake. Damn you tricky Dick.

I had about a dozen different kinds of nerdgasms watching that. As much as I dislike the idea of going to the Moon before Mars, I can understand the reasoning, especially with such a pitiful budget NASA has to deal with in this day an age. Huge deficit? How the hell did that happen?!

However, I digress. Seeing this, and following some of the papers and articles over at Nasa.gov, is only strengthening my resolve to achieve my doctorate in astrophysics. It would be a dream of dreams to work on any of these programs, and even if I can't, I will certainly be waiting with baited breath for the programs to start their journeys.

It has been a far, far, far too long time in the coming. It'd be nice to see all the petty squabbling come to an end here on Earth so we can work together to answer the big questions about life, the universe and everything.
