Yes, we, human wonderful achievement of the Apollo moon landing's 40th anniversary to celebrate.
However, even in the minds of others are living in: United States space project and the innovation economy, of our time proved to be a big failure. Scientific and technical resources of the country has absorbed most of the decades, and some are economically useful spin off.
Consider this situation: 1962-1972, when the last Apollo moon mission, space-related activities and 59% of non - Defense Research and Development in the Government. While we have spent the rapid development of space travel in other words, we R & D of energy and natural resources to put money in other important areas are not. (In 1970, the results of missing a real energy crisis).
President Kennedy in his 1961 speech, he said that many accept the "one man in the moon landing of the U.S. goal." Kennedy said: promised
This decision, and scientific and technical manpower, material and facilities of a major national commitment to the demands of other important activities can be changed, they are dispersed.
We spend in other areas. 1962 1972, the U.S. space program (in 2009 dollars for inflation) adjusted to spend 176 billion U.S. dollars. The federal interstate highway system during the same period of heavy construction spending to the Federal Highway Trust Fund in 1962 to 2,009 in 1972 from U.S. $ 220 billion U.S. dollars by the total (cost) is close to the limit,.
We interstate highway system, fast and convenient transportation have established suburbs, our entire way of life of the change. We, especially the part of the manned space program, what is economic? , To refer not so much. Government investment in space, instead of opening new opportunities, close the original one. Communication satellite, a large number of yes, but what? As long as I, a lot of space research has a tremendous practical application has'm wrong there is no place for the manufacturing sector (please give me, if I am wrong I know this).
I'm sorry this issue is a grump. I think that spending is a bad idea do not think the place. I think that the moon is a bad idea do not think so. On the contrary, I think we'll be happy.
I just made to see an economic issue, we also did not produce large economic returns science and technology work and money scarce, one of the activities of, at least by now a lot of use.
In the end, this problem is due to hand a large number of government? As soon as I where I and a private sector in space activities in recent history will.
