"Our spirits were lifted last week by NASA's announcement that it intends to establish a permanent moon base starting in about 2020. Not only is this a first step toward putting humans on Mars someday, it also offers outstanding opportunities for adventure, real scientific work and a few long-odds opportunities for gangbuster technological advances."

How much for a moon base? Donâ€™t ask
Itâ€™ll be less than the $104 billion cost of getting there, NASA chief says
