    • re: If you read the article it would seem it doesn't depend on what you are looking at. A lunar bases system is a waste of time and money. (n/t) - Chris Vancil still in AZ - 12/20/2006 2:54:51 AM

        • re: BTW, nobody is arguing NEO detection is a waste of time and money only lunar based systems are a waste of time and money. We can do the job better in space and on Earth. (n/t) - Chris Vancil in AZ - 12/20/2006 5:01:49 PM
