re: What's A Second Home For Humanity Worth?

So you seem to divide the world between those that are for the Moon first and those that are for Mars first. Interesting and simplistic.

But once again I am waiting to hear why my generation should be stuck with a trillion dollar bill just so some baby boomers may live out their childhold dreams of Mars. Just what do we get out of it other then the pleasure of being nice to our elders who are leaving us their mess of a world to clean up while they go mess up another one?
