Fuck the moon.

It's been done. All they'd have to do is dust off Von Braum's old drawing for the Saturn V and Bob's your uncle.

How bout a president with balls who actually makes a comittment to the idea and puts his money where his mouth is. I seem to recall W's father making a similar pitch, but it was all talk no action.

I say, let's go for Mars NOW. Well, say let's aim for Mars by the end of this decade. Now that's ambitious and that's a real goal.

The moon is just a big rock in space.

Mars is a PLANET.

Or how bout Venus. I hear it's a lot warmer there than mars.

One problem though. Werner Von Braum is dead.
