Ditto. We must explore the Planets. I was disappointed that we did not build a base on the Moon instead of the ISS. Remember reading how easily it could be done, put a tent over a crater and mine foe materials to build permanent station.

We should have been on Moon in 1999, Went to Jupiter in 2001. Need to perfect the Warp Drive which NASA says now may be feasible.

Don't stagnate!
