Obama eliminates NASA's funds for manned lunar missions

This is a tough one for me, I mean on one hand sending man to Mars would be something amazing that nobody would ever forget in their lifetimes.

On the other hand, they will go up there and not find anything worthwhile or of any practical gain to the rest of the world. It will just be more or less for the "cool" factor.

Overall, I guess I agree with Obama in that the money is probably best spent elsewhere.
