G-spotter Posted January 31, 2009 Posted January 31, 2009 link The achievement of human space flight is an extraordinary testament to modern science and technology. Its progressive content—the ever greater reach of human knowledge and exploration—must be continued and expanded. Whether this will require human space flight per se in the years to come is difficult to say. As things stand, the space shuttle program has become so warped by private economic and political interests that it is nearly impossible to determine what is necessary from a scientific perspective. What is clear is that the future of human space flight cannot be rationally considered within the present social system. Quote
