Giving up on manned space flight doesn’t mean we have to give up on the exploration of the solar system.

Fat, dumb and happily remotely operating a probe from a dark walled in room is no substitute for the actual experience of a new frontier.

The powers that "be" do not want us off this rock,they fear what we will learn and that we would become independent..............uncontrollable.
