Go read about the X-Prize. Manned spaceflight won't be done right by NASA. Go check out a Slashdot discussion I had about Space and read about cheaper, better, safer spacesuits that NASA decided to ditch in favor of clown-suit boondoggles at five hundred times the cost. Go read "Kings of the High Frontier" and wonder why we're not living in low earth orbit right now.
Sorry. Been having something of a near-religious fascination with Space as of late.
