A co-worker and I once had this same discussion. She couldn’t understand why we continued to send probes to Mars.Her take on it was that space exploration was a continual quest to disprove the existance of God.Where I couldn’t agree with that assessment, I have often wondered since then, what are the motivations? Other than because it is there and we can? My thoughts are just because I want to know. But that doesn’t seem valid since I have not studied it. So my question is this, what do you want to know and why?

I say this, if, like Kir Kanos, we just try to do something to make a difference in our own life and one or two lives around us, there’s no telling how much that change will impact the world. I guess I just mourn the spirit of imagination and courage that the men interviewed on the show seemed to have had. I wish a lot of other people would capture it.
