There’s a group of Nasa scientists who call themselves the Asteroid Undergound. They’re pushing for a mission to an asteroid to be included in the Constellation manned mission schedule. One of their guys said we should just blow past the moon, waving at the Russinas and Chinese and calling out “Great stuff guys, but we did that 50 years ago!”
