Maybe H.G. Wells got there first and fixed it so no capitalistic scum could get there equipment there. I think the major problem is that NASA spends too much on the shuttle and less for the real interesting exploration. If they didn't have to nickle and dime their way to Mars then the outcome would be assured. I, too, will have my fingers crossed. I'd be glad to volunteer for a trip to Mars, even a one way trip. If we could figure out what happened to the Beagle, it might help.

NASA has a fetish with having humans in space even if all they do is study how flies fart in zero gravity on the shuttle. IMO quality robot missions are the way to go right now.
