re: Too far in the future
Sending a manned mission to Alpha Centauri is awfully far in the future.
Going to NEOs are not. It can easily be done in this lifetime.
If we can have a lunar base by 2024, NEO missions are just as feasible.
And in my opinion, will have better rewards. A few extra months or years
will mean nothing in the long run.
Where is that can-do spirit any more?
