Do you think the present economic crisis that we are going through will curtail the funds alloted to space program mes?Do you think money spent on space programs can be better utilized for other purpose?What do you think is the future of space programs taken up by most nations......

I do think the space programs is important and many jobs have come from that program, but right now we need many, many more jobs for people and housing for those who have lot their homes. The country will recover when we start spending more and we can only do that when we have jobs. It's a circle folks
