Wrong again, O ye of little research. Bigelow "has two fully inflated test modules in orbit already, and will be buying 15 to 20 rocket launchings in 2017 and in each year after, providing ample business for the private companies that the Obama administration would like to finance for the transportation of astronauts into orbit — the so-called commercial crew initiative." [Ibid.]

Orbit as I said Going nowhere we already done that. So your big revelation is were going to go into Orbit Not the moon just Orbit.

Color me underwhelmed.

No destination that is just really high above the earth.

A Destination is another place like the moon.

"Them"? "Them" who?

Astronauts are you really that thick? Instead of lolling around in earth orbit. I want them to actually go somewhere and make another place to live and work and explore.

Your position: mankind can only expand into space if we spend taxpayer dollars to fund a bloated, unionized government bureaucracy in order to send a small number of federal employees to the moon and other planets.

I don’t agree.
