Imagine? lol someone with more the 5 brain cells to rub together in charge. Add Jacque Fresco as VP or at least Secretary of the Interior and I'm in.

Space travel and research is anything but a waste of money, it may be the only thing that can save the inhabitants of Earth from annihilation in fact. We need to get FAR MORE SERIOUS about exploring and settling space, and it will pay for itself many thousands of times over, and if we don't we are doomed.
No way we would see it through a telescope being so far out even if it is there and is huge. I have always found comets and things outside the normal solar system very interesting, but we know allmost nothing about them... We just decided fucking pluto was not a planet and the area in question is much farther out... 15,000 AU DAMN!

You are seriously confused over the scope of the budget. NASA's total budget is around 16 billion I think, even some single billionaires have more than that! The military is the single biggest consumer of the budget at at least 200 billion. Schools in small towns have million dollar budgets, multiply that across the whole country, and what would you be able to buy the children if you eliminated NASA, an eraser for their pencils maybe? You clowns crack me up, those that think science is not a worthy investment when it is responsible for all progress to date. Pure ignorance talking, without any grasp on reality or the facts.

how the fuck would anyone ever be able to live in space
Its actually not that difficult if you can bio-engineer a good closed loop system. Of course we are a hundred years away from being about to truly do it, but that has a lot to do with us taking the past 30 years off in terms of manned space exploration. We would need to discover a source of energy such as He3 in vast enough quantities and in locations accessible enough throughout space to be viable.

how did this become a education discussion?
what does this discovery actually mean for humanity?

not really at the discovery stage, this is preliminary results, the system they're talking about is beginning its tasks(as i understand it)

Hate to break it yas, but NASA had diddly-squat to do with the development of cellphones......

Yeah the Den is not necessarily the place for serious discussion/debate even on some pretty wild topics. Been here at IC on and off for quite a few years so understand and have a thick skin to deal with the Troglodytes. Have heard about Elenin/Nibiru/whatever awhile back. Some friends are really into this stuff. We'll see what happens later this year. This whole thing started 'underground' a long time ago and very fringe to say the least. I'm still not convinced. Some say the Nephilim/Anunaki, or something like that, are coming back to collect their dues.
There are planets out there with civilizations so far beyond on us. I just love to think about what other planets could be like.

I was blazed and floated there, much nicer people 
to trend back on topic, i see the SETI array(might be another name) is going to be turned off for lack of funds
hopefully, some deep pockets billionaire will step in

They should televise Seti in a reality TV format to raise funds.
There seems to be an infinite demand for that stuff.

Yeah, well, that or weaponize Seti in some way. That's the other thing that is in permanent demand...

I got neg rep for this and the message said:
The reason they cost more to operate is all the government regulations, safety certification and insurance and registration and emissions control that have been put in place because of the greedy and the irresponsible. It's a no-brainer that space travel requires safety, we can't have a bunch of people strapping 10,000 lbs of fuel to their ass and shooting it off into who knows where.
Except me of course
