@@antman6495 And I agree with you wholeheartedly. We're supposed to be one of the richest, if not the richest country in the world. Yet when it comes to math & science, we happen to be in the middle against other industrial nations. Even worse is that we are 18th with graduating scientists. Last test scores placed our nation at an unimpressive 38th out of 71 countries in math and 24th in science. A rich and powerful nation like the U.S. should be boasting bigger numbers, but we don't. If we can't blame our kids, then it becomes obvious that something is amidst. They say if the numbers don't add up, it's probably because the truth wasn't added to the equation. The current status our country happens to be in is not as the result of bad decision-making from one leader to the next. On the contrary, It's by design. Our country wants us none the wiser. The U.S. doesn't want citizens capable of critical thinking...it doesn't do them any good, it goes against their interests. The criteria for the public school system is not to teach, but to teach our children to conform as mandated by the U.S. Dept of labor. What's the reason behind that? In 1933 FDR filed a U.S. bankruptcy loan with the Federal Reserve and used our nation's citizens and our hard labor as collateral. A loan that we can never get out of. Israel and the Federal Reserve have for half a century had a stranglehold on the U.S. in the form of the Usery system. "What Is Usury? Usury is the act of lending money at an interest rate that is considered unreasonably high or that is higher than the rate permitted by law. Usury first became common in England under King Henry VIII and originally pertained to charging any amount of interest on loaned funds. Over time it evolved to mean charging excess interest, but in some religions and parts of the world charging any interest is considered illegal." It's this system that Hitler wanted no part of for Germany and its people. The same system that we happen to be enslaved by. Bartering with Brazil and other Latin American countries (German goods for fruits & vegetables) was a system that those in power were unable to put a value on and, therefore could not have control of it as well. Every major historical event for decades now have all been staged as it has been designed.

So true. Leave the flat-earthers and Moon-landing deniers to huddle round their biased channels/information sites. Don't waste time acknowledging them. Flat earthers (and a range of other conspiracy theorists) with channels/sites know they will 'lose revenue' if they change their opinions in the face of any level of indisputable evidence (which is why they so emphatically press the point). Their followers fear they will appear 'weak' or 'easily manipulated' if they change their opinion before their social circle (which is why they are given to interrupt a scientific explanation as well as confirm their beliefs so loudly, so rudely, and sometimes with added threats). If they want to believe backward theories, then let them.

With computing power and technology increasing at such a massive rate and things like metamaterials coming to the forefront to replace lenses, I would say that waiting a few years may be in the best interest of astronomy. Many new propulsion systems are coming on line as well which will reduce cost even more.

Everything in deep telescope vision of space, is a fast foward of light that sloped in curved through distance & refracted obstacles, so if you parked a spaceship for a full year, exactly steady of Earths & its galaxy motion, the craft would appear a blink of an eye at millions to billions light years away

oh that is pretty simple. At least in theory. Its a force that pushes matter instead like Gravitation pulls it. So a kind of anti gravity. But it its probably nonsense. Observed space don't behave like Einstein predicted, so they needed to introduce a new 'force' to be able to uphold Einsteins relativity. Instead looking for other explanations as any scientist would do. They truly believe in their equations you know.

When it comes to the budget for NASA . You have to admit , they always go over budget by alot. So when funding is pulled , they may not be looking at the amount NASA says it will cost. But what it will end up costing. NASA seems to hook the American people with an idea and a price . Then hold them hostage for more money with the thought that what was already put in will be wasted .

I personally believe ANYTHING taken away from Research ultimately takes away from development in much greater ways!

The earth is not flat, it`s not round either, it is the shape of a giant inflatable banana. You heard it here first.

at least you apologized for the bait.

I had a problem, and I saw how some political parties commentators like the idea of private space exploration and as soon as some of the private space companies started to appeared and NASA dismantled some of the operations, they went into a rampage of hate about why NASA didn’t kept doing what they were doing. It seems like they are displeased if anything innovation is. Or anything that is done out of their narrow scope of expectations for their buddies business is not acceptable.
