What has NASA done for me?

what nasa needs to do now is first colonize the moon cos Helium 3 is an energy source that wont pollute our planet and kill the evil oil industry. Helium 3 is plenty in the moon. By far it seemed like space travel is not yet useful. its going to be useful once they colonized the moon and colonized mars. building pressurized domes in mars will solve the over population problems but sadly it will cost a lot of money. by far nasa hasnt done any progress. I think it might be better to leave space exploration to Russia.

Don't forget solid state electronics which reduced weight for space travel and lead to PC's, satellite communication for phone, TV, and GPS, and don't forget Velcro!!!

yup I think so to and open Cape Canabral back up and get back into the space program!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm assuming the powers that be were fully aware of the benefits derived from the space program before they went ahead in pulling the plug (at least in the public eye ,in cancelling manned flight with the Space Shuttle)-but the R&D will be continuing..

Whether it is NASA or private companies, we need to continue with space exploration and eventually expansion into space. The reason for this is that very few countries, societies or religions are willing to control population. Too many people on Earth is the ultimate cause of pollution and the using up of natural resources. If obtaining resources from other planets, asteroids, etc. and establishing colonies on planets and in ships is not done, then we are doomed long before our sun destroys us. We are rapidly running out of the resources here on Earth that are needed to be able to accomplish what we need to do in space. It will be too late much sooner than most realize.

I didn't realize that NASA had done so much! I think they should continue and spend money on it. They could cut one of the other programs. There are so many investigations on stupid stuff, and the money could be spent much better.

They have truly been an amazing organization that has give a ton to the world. I liked the embedded health and fitness monitor in a shirt mentioned in the article. I knew they had given us alot but that list is amazing.

I am not really into science. Reading that article shows that NASA is doing something good for once! I just wish they didn't stop the Space Shuttle fights! They could of continued them until something was developed! That is my opinion anyway!

NASA and the space program has done so much for everybody it is hard to count the many differnet spinoffs of the tech. most poeple realy do not stop to relizie how mportant the space program has been. we need to keep it going.
