I think NASA is a huge waste of money. But what do I know? I’m a jerk with a phone.

1. Was sending a human to the Moon a good thing? Yes. The dividends from the technology developed alone make it “worth it”.

2. Should NASA build a space station as part of an international project with other countries? Yes, well we already have.

3. Do you think NASA should send astronauts to Mars? Yes, see answer to 1

4. Was sending a chimpanzee to space a good idea? Yes. Duh, better a chimp rather than a human, esp. if something goes wrong.

5. Is ending the Space Shuttle program a good idea? No. We have no access to space without the shuttle. If Constellation was on track, that would be a different story.

1. Was sending a human to the Moon a good thing?
YES, it was an inspIring feat that led to many practical applications to this day.

2. Should NASA build a space station as part of an international project with other countries?
NO, one clunker in LEO is enough.

3. Do you think NASA should send astronauts to Mars?
NO, not NASA as presently constituted.

4. Was sending a chimpanzee to space a good idea?
YES, it was probably more worthwhile than "Muslim outreach."

5. Is ending the Space Shuttle program a good idea?
YES, but it was done so half-assed, it needs to continue on a limited basis for a few more years.

My daughter is taking a survey for her fourth grade science class. She needs 50 people to answer the following YES/NO questions:

1. Was sending a human to the Moon a good thing?
yes
2. Should NASA build a space station as part of an international project with other countries?
yes
3. Do you think NASA should send astronauts to Mars?
yes
4. Was sending a chimpanzee to space a good idea?
no.
5. Is ending the Space Shuttle program a good idea?
no, we need to maintain a dedicated US manned space flight system. Depending on Russian flights for our astronauts is flatly insane.

1. Yes. It generated a lot of good scientific information.

2. No. Every time we get tangled up with other countries in space, costs go up and capability goes down.

3. No. Based on their recent performance, it would be better to let a private outfit do it.

4. Yes. Better to test on animals than humans.

5. Yes. It’s a lousy vehicle and should never have been built in the first place. It was an attempt to do everything, and does nothing well.

1. Was sending a human to the Moon a good thing? When did that happen?

2. Should NASA build a space station as part of an international project with other countries? No.

3. Do you think NASA should send astronauts to Mars? Yes, but first go to the Moon.

4. Was sending a chimpanzee to space a good idea? Not for the chimp.

5. Is ending the Space Shuttle program a good idea? Sure, let the Russians and Chinese take all the risk. Besides NASA is busy smooching with Islam. Space stuff just gets in the way.

1. Was sending a human to the Moon a good thing? Absolutely. Otherwise man would stagnate and would loose our advantage over the monkeys.

2. Should NASA build a space station as part of an international project with other countries? Yes. Plus bases on the Moon, Mars, and elsewhere.

3. Do you think NASA should send astronauts to Mars? Yes. - and everywhere that we can land a space craft.

4. Was sending a chimpanzee to space a good idea? Yes. We had to start somewhere and sending an insect or anything other than a mammal would have been a complete waste of time. We needed to send a species into space that was as close to us as was genetically possible.

5. Is ending the Space Shuttle program a good idea? Only if it is replaced with a updated, more modern (safer) system.

1. Was sending a human to the Moon a good thing?
Yes, and now we need to colonize it.

2. Should NASA build a space station as part of an international project with other countries?
Yes only if the intent is to build one with centrifugal artificial gravity, and maybe at a Lagrange point between Earth and Moon.

3. Do you think NASA should send astronauts to Mars?
Yes and we should colonize it.

4. Was sending a chimpanzee to space a good idea?
Yes as an intermediary step to manned space flight.

5. Is ending the Space Shuttle program a good idea?
No, the STS program should have evolved over the years instead of being mothballed. All evolved configurations would solve known issues.
