Completely support this. Grew up loving his father's programs and I think we should invest more in saving our planet than going to Mars.

Those who understand rocket engineering can’t just be asked to switch to something else, though. In any case, there has been a lot of evidence that humans’ foray into space has led to a lot of innovation of technologies that we’ve used here on Earth.

We also should have a plan B as a species.

I’m of the camp that believes we should go to space and also focused on saving the Earth.
