Scientific exploration in every field is the only reason humans are surviving and thriving better than all other species.

I agree with that. But as far as I can tell, we did little to no "scientific exploration" when we went there. We planted a flag and left...and haven't been back in 50 years.

In retrospect, it does seem like *that* effort was a huge waste of resources. Which isn't to say that we should not conduct space exploration now.

The “scientific exploration” was *the getting there* - you can’t possibly be this stupid?

The ever increasing lack of intellectual or scientific curiosity is so disturbing.

We spend 0.48% of our budget on space exploration while we spent a whole lot more to support foreign wars.

You know what’s hard is feeding everybody healthy food let’s do that.

PP. It's available. People won't eat it. My depression-era grandparents were poor as fck and ate healthy food. Same for my impoverished great-grandparents in rural Italy. The food thing is not a money problem; hasn't been for over 100 years.

The so-called food deserts claim about blighted America is unhelpful posturing.

One day we might have a bulk of our crops planted on moon or mars.

Science is a process which takes trails and errors to advance and perfect. Why teach kids KG material when we know they can't do anything advance unless they study further for at least 15-20 years.

Just in health relam, enough benefits to validate space exploration.

"studies of human life in space have augmented the understanding of the effects of adjusting to a space environment, such as alterations in body fluids, negative influences on the immune system and effects of space on sleep patterns.[26] Current space research pursuits are divided into the subjects of Space Biology, which studies the effects of space on smaller organisms such as cells, Space Physiology, which is the study of the effects of space on the human body and Space Medicine, which examines the possible dangers of space on the human body.[26] The Canadian science experiments in the cardiovascular system examines how astronauts’ blood vessels change before, during and after missions. The study in space helps understand heart failures and how our arteries age on earth. Space engineers helped design heart pumps now used to keep people in need of heart transplant alive until a donor heart becomes available.Discoveries concerning the human body and space, particularly the effects on the development of bones, may provide further understanding of biomineralization and the process of gene transcription."

FOX would rather hand over all rights and resources of space exploration to Russia, India and China just to save money spent on scientific advancement and reroute it to religion and wars.

Fox defunds space exploration? Cite this information.

When this has nothing to do with a television news station.
