If you had the world where the space program didn't excist the world would be worse off.

The space program has lead to a lot of things:

medicine (Growing mehods in druds)
Satelites (weather sats help predice weather,sat TV, internet, commumications)
and others that I can't thing off at the moment.

Sorry have to disagree. If they are spending mega bucks on this they will hopefully not spend as much on weapons of war.

It does seem a waste of money that could be better spent elsewhere. BUT it is increasing our knowledge of space so it's not all bad.

So if they find any useful resources on the moon who won't want to benefit from them? :erm:

Cheese lots and lots of cheese and maybe yet unknown metals and minerals :)

True and the sad fact is we are not spending nearly enough.

The moon is severely undervalued if we think this is a waste of money - The moon has been said to help the stability of the Earth and keep it on its axis - without it the Earth wouldn't be able to sustain life as we know now and would spin around in all sorts of directions and I bet Nasa are also eager to look at what the other side of the moon is hiding seeing as they haven't seen it for quite some time now. :)

Why is it a waste of time be nice to acheive something other then new bombs war and doom on the telly to see us acheive this would be a great feat.

I personally am all for it :tu: what would you prefer sending more aid to countries but then pickout who and what you give who?

This is something for all countries to enjoy get the plasma's up in New Orleans and name the mission after them I say.
