Several Inventions Make it Worth it
 
We have several inventions because of space travel. CAT scans, LEDs, Home computers, Freeze Dried Food, Memory Foam and Camera Cell Phones are just the tip of the iceberg.

Kinda what the Nazi's did after Extraterrestrials visited Germany. Unfortunately the tech was split with Communists

One thing is for sure...a million years from now the cenozoic period will be found to have greater advances than the dinosaurs, even though there are dinosaurs on this forum

They are going to need some kind of coats at minus 195 degrees F.

Absolute zero - Wikipedia

That would be a 10 space DOG night.

The moon doesn't have a system, built by aliens, ready to be activated, which will instantly provide an atmosphere, like Mars does. Come on, man! These are easy questions.
