Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

You know, when I was a kid in the 1960s, I was fascinated with space exploration. I believe the space program has contributed greatly, in numerous ways, to the scientific world.

But, I think that the scientific community's obsession with finding water on the moon and on other planets is idle curiousity and does not justify the time and money being spent on it. What good will it do us to know?

I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.

I am much more in favor of spending our money on unmanned space exploration to the far reaches of the solar system, or a new space shuttle for scientific purposes. Going back to the moon should not be one of our priorities.

Checking if there's water on the moon should be the job of hopeful developers that wish to build settlements on the moon (since they would be the ones concerned with this).

NASA should be focused on scientific exploration and not real-estate prospecting.

There is no better guide through darkness then your own balance

Yes, the crash was science + engineering, a first step to have men on the moon instead in an unhealthy orbit. They have rocks, dust, water from the moon and x-ray's. To gain energy from water by dividing oxigen from hydrogen with the use of x-rays would solve the energy-problem. With rocks, dust, water they could build house's etc. To transport idea's is much cheaper. It is a first step, what would be done anyway.
