I’m totally disgusted by the way it unraveled. Now we’re going to have to wait for another Republican administration that’s not wet-behind-the-ears when it comes to understanding the ill will much of the rest of the world has for us, before we get another leg up in space again, and hope it remains in office long enough to get us off the ground. It’s hard to be optimistic.

I'm 48. I seriously doubt that I'll see man land on Mars in my lifetime. When I was six, the tentative timeline was a US manned Mars landing between 1986 and 1990.

It's just sad.
