The article that Casey commented on was about a rocket Ares I-X, taking a NASA crew to land on the moon. Casey believes it's a big step towards possible discoveries, and knowledge of space. However, with the economy the way it is everyone is suffering and funding is an issue. Some believe NASA is spending more than their current funding. Casey also saw the issues behind that and agreed there isnt really a rush to land another aircraft on the moon. In hard times such as this we should focus on other problems, and put this mission on hold.
I agree with what Casey had to say 100%. The reasoning behind this is, although it's been forty years since the U.S. has had a man on the moon, there is no reason why we need to rush and suddenly put one on immediatly. In the near future possibly, but not now. At the moment our government and the people are in a minor crisis. With the economy as tight as it is, I think the funding could be put to better use. It really has no gain for us, what I mean is certain knowledge of the moon wont help us with our current problems. We need to put this mission on hold, and focus on more important issues.
