Something needs to wake the world up. THE ENTIRE WORLD. The space program will continue to stagnate as long as only a few countries in the game. We're 40 years behind in our manned space program -- and if the human race wants to continue to grow, we CANNOT stay here on this little planet. The Earth is a dead-end.
