to thrive and develop the technology needed to pursue space travel, yet is also not just indifferent towards, but rather sympathetic to outsiders.

Sad as it is,I think that may be profoundly unnatural. They come all this way to see us and we'd probably be kept in zoos, or roasted on a stick and eaten as a delicacy or something.

This is why we need to start a preemptive war against all other intelligent life. Wipe them all out, because you know they'd do worse to us given the opportunity.

Any thoughts on funding for NASA, physics related to space travel, and Hubble type projects? - shikantaza 2012-02-27 09:36:37 (76 views)

The value that it provides for interest and enthusiasm in science and technology is worth it alone. - Thelonious Dunk 2012-02-27 15:43:26 (35 views)

Exactly, eff you luddites! - nomad 2012-02-27 18:58:01 (35 views)

Love outer space but inner space is the final frontier, and the most significant. Consciousness FTW. - BackseatGM 2012-02-27 11:05:48 (31 views)

So you're suggesting they spend the NASA budget on peyote? - fanofnothing 2012-02-27 12:17:50 (31 views)

That wasn't what I had in mind but it would allow a close up view of far away worlds, lol. - BackseatGM 2012-02-27 14:12:32 (30 views)

Long term vs. short term thinking - got to have both. - nomad 2012-02-27 10:51:12 (44 views)

So...both Nasa AND Peyote? - rem rehab 2012-02-28 10:51:19 (37 views)

Yes!!! - nomad 2012-02-28 11:47:44 (24 views)

from my POV, we hardly do any of the looking for resources in space - DC Warrior 2012-02-27 10:48:30 (56 views)

We waste more money on things that give less return IMO - Shallow Hal 2012-02-27 09:57:35 (36 views)

Agreed. I'm a fan. - nomad 2012-02-27 10:36:07 (31 views)

One thing to keep in mind as well are the peripheral benefits of NASA - fanofnothing 2012-02-27 09:53:15 (69 views)

Absolutely. About your first paragraph, I've read that the benefits were something like 10 to 1 - nomad 2012-02-27 10:29:51 (57 views)

And all without blowing anyone up as a side effect. - Dick Nikon 2012-02-27 12:15:04 (32 views)

One could argue that DARPA totally transformed the world - Earl j. Slick 2012-02-27 11:32:12 (48 views)

And continues to do so. - nomad 2012-02-27 11:39:46 (30 views)

The only question on new tech developments to me is whether there's a better big picture target - fanofnothing 2012-02-27 10:42:12 (45 views)

Agreed. The excitement is key, imo. - nomad 2012-02-27 10:52:03 (30 views)

I just want to be able to fill space with advanced weaponry - Earl j. Slick 2012-02-27 10:14:42 (52 views)

I think it's really, really fortunate that such vast distances separate us - fanofnothing 2012-02-27 10:43:28 (51 views)
