When I was looking back in the year, I remembered a topic my Senior Aerospace Science Instructor brought up in ROTC about space exploration. He asked us if we thought further exploration of space was worth the large amounts of money and time we put into it. I would like to hear responses from the rest of you about the topic. Keep in mind this is about further exploration, not about the stuff we've already done such as satellites and all that.

Certainly. The money we put into exploring space has almost always been met with benefit. Compare it to other spending habits that many governments go through, and it makes me further believe that it is better placed into space.
