Whoever makes this statement is an idiot Why? [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA_spin-off_technologies]Well educate yourself[/url] on all of the technolgies that we use that have originated from space exploration and NASA. You see, there's alot of it. Hell you could just google it and you'll find alot of things. This is why NASA should be funded, because not only do we explore space and other planets, because the technologies also benefit the general society.
