Opinie kandydatow na eksploracje kosmosu - sorry za Angielski

pytanie: Do you believe space exploration is important? How big a priority
will NASA be during your administration? What should our focus in space be:
medical and scientific research, colonization, a Mars landing, or something
else?

Al Gore: Exploration and discovery have always been a part of the American
experience, particularly in space.

As we open a new millennium, we must continue to press the boundaries of
space exploration and continue the tradition of American leadership in
space.

As president, I will support a strong NASA that transforms today's
scientific and technical challenges into tomorrow's realities. I will work
to complete the International Space Station as a world-class orbiting
research facility teaching us how to live and work in space. I will also
focus NASA's resources on lowering the cost of space transportation to
support robotic missions to Mars as precursors to possible human missions.

I believe that our space program has a unique role in bringing the benefits
of space down to earth, not only in the areas of medical research and
technology, but also in terms of environmental monitoring and education.

George Bush jr.: Whenever I hear an astronaut speak I am always struck by
the enthusiasm and adventure they capture...

...when they describe their journey soaring above the Earth. There is
amazing power in their speech when they talk about gazing back on their home
planet and describing the view of a very fragile and dynamic world full of
such diversity.

I support continuing to explore Mars. I believe it is important that we
continue to lay the groundwork for long-term exploration of our neighboring
planets such as Mars by increasing our knowledge and experience of planetary
exploration via robots, including landers that are ultimately capable of
extensive coverage. In addition, it is important that America stay focused
on driving the cost of space transportation down so that the total costs of
sending humans to explore new planets is affordable and the means to get
them there is technologically feasible, reliable and accountable. That means
making renewed commitments to math and science education at every level of
education in America and managing programs more responsibly.

I support the International Space Station and believe that we must ensure
that it becomes operational in the near term. At the same time, I believe
that the ISS provides important lessons that should govern whether or not we
enter into similar international space projects in the future. Such lessons
include establishing at the outset very clear and concise criteria for the
project's success, as well as compelling goals that the American taxpayer
can use to judge whether the project advanced our nation's overall interests
in space.

NASA, like other science agencies, is inherently responsible for sharing
whatever insights they can to help us better understand our planet and life
upon it. Whether through developing new technologies that can give us
advance warnings of weather emergencies such as hurricanes or tornadoes, or
applying new-found knowledge to help a farmer plant a more robust crop, NASA
and all federal agencies have to show how exploring the beyond offers us
discovery and reward here at home. The end result not only better serves the
taxpayers whose investments made the research possible, but ultimately will
make us better stewards of God’s creation.

uuuuu jaki ten Bush jest rrromulansko pompatyczny. Nie lubie go... Idiota
nie
moze zwyciezyc! Niech zyje Al Gore!
konczac te mala dygresje polityczna
