I am sure many people in Europe felt the way about Columbus and other explorers that it was a waste of money and resourses, but look what it got us ,our country! With so much happending here on earth someday we may need room to expand for what ever reason. Also look at all the jobs the space program created and the taxes they paid that in turn paid for many other programs. Now they are gone and the people will be getting unemployment though no fault of their own. Don't know about you but I would rather see people work .
I was lucky enough to see several launches and they were great. But the greateat was a night launch. I 95 was a parking lot to see it go of. Everyone just pulled to the side of the rode to watch. I don't see how anyone who has ever saw a launch either live or on TV can not be proud of the program and can not but wonder what we might find in space.
