I'm all for more space exploration; I just think conservatives spend too much money on the military (stop pissing off the rest of the world so much and that much defense wouldn't be necessary) and should instead focus on science and medicine. With resources such as oil increasingly low, if we could find similar resources on other planets (which would take years and money to find and even more to manipulate, but we could at least get started) and put a stop to these damn gas prices. Too bad Bush gave billions of tax dollars back to the upper 4%, with the spare change "trickling down" on the rest of us.
