Space … the final frontier. So, as I am sure everyone knows, the National Aeronautical Space Administration (NASA) is located right here in H-town. OK, well, technically in Clear Lake. One rarely thinks of space exploration as an extension of government, but remember, one of President John F. Kennedy’s challenges promises to the nation was sending an American to the moon.
Well recently, with the call to put an astronaut on Mars by President George W. Bush, and with the founding of SpaceX by Elon Musk, the discussion about space exploration has re-emerged. I would like you to address the following debate. What extent should the government use tax-payer dollars to fund space exploration? Should we leave space travel up to the private sector, or should the government invest more NASA mission. Perhaps there is a healthy balance between the two? What are your thoughts.
Below are some recent (and old) articles about this subject. In addition, I have also linked a report that NASA contributed to about the benefits of space exploration, and a finding by the Congressional Budget Office suggesting how money could be spent elsewhere.

Space … the final frontier.
Introduction
Space is the final frontier. I know it’s such an obvious statement, but it’s also true. And for good reason: The vastness of space allows us to travel at speeds we never could on Earth, and explore new planets and moons that no one has ever seen before. It’s exciting stuff!
To boldly go where no man has gone before.
To boldly go where no man has gone before.
The phrase was first used in the pilot episode of Star Trek, when Captain James Tiberius Kirk utters it to his crew: “To boldly go where no one has gone before.” It’s a classic line that’s been used throughout all six seasons and two spin-off shows (Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Voyager).
Live long and prosper.
“Live long and prosper” is an iconic Vulcan greeting. It’s one of the most famous phrases in sci-fi, and it’s also a common phrase used by Star Trek fans to say hello or goodbye.
It comes from Star Trek: The Original Series, when Captain Kirk said it to his crew after defeating the Gorn on their home planet.
I am a leaf on the wind; watch how I soar.
