Or, we could abandon the idea of deep space manned flight, save a couple trillion that could be applied to unmanned space missions and really get some science done.

Posted at a construction site? So the guy was littering?

Oh please. 99.999999999% of the human race will never go into space, including you. If your reason for manned space flight is so you can live vicariously through another human being instead of a robot or probe, then admit it. But don’t ask the rest of us to pay trillions for your strange desires.

Why do these fucking “Toy” articles keep showing up in my following feed page? If I wanted to read them I would fucking “follow” them. Cut this shit out, it’s annoying as hell.

Look, this was your thing. You made the statement that there were unmanned mission failures that could have been fixed if humans were around yet all you do is make lists.

No, I’m an anti manned deep space flight troll because i think it is a waste of money.

That’s not an AMA quote and I don’t see the word “colony” any where near it.

I don't see any AMA quotes.

I can't believe you're arguing this.

So if you and the rest of mankind don't go, you'll just be looking a pictures, right?

Still waiting for your AMA citations showing the crystal clarity of nasas plan to colonize Mars.

No, it's not a natural conclusion.

2 Scooby snacks for the Zagar and Evans ref.

It was your statement, let’s take a look at it again.

That's just starry eyed conjecture, you believe it because you want to believe it not because it is rationally supportable.

On your urging I went to the link and read all the responses from NASA, because you said it refuted my statements. It did no such thing. While they referenced a multi year manned mission, there was no talk of establishing colonies as a goal of NASA.

Again, how much money is there in the private colonization of the solar system.

Only a boob would believe voluntary contributions to a crowd funded project is the same as mandatory taxes required by the government.

Nobody has proven there is liquid water on Mars.

Really? And whose stated goal is that, yours?
