Sorry to be a heretic to your religion, but the fact is that space exploration is a waste of money. Something that I don't have a problem with as long as it's the space heads' money that is being wasted. But Like all good socialists, space heads think that their own pipe dreams are so important that the ignorant masses (ie those who don't think the way that they do) should be forced to support their space fantasies.
You really should try dragoncon there are a lot of people there who think like you do. You would probably like it.
