What about the space program?

No one seems to care about it, except particularly ardent fans. And the government only cares about satellites that benefit them.

However, discoveries and innovations are still happening. The latest one I have in mind is the James Webb Space Telescope. And private companies like SpaceX are still planning a mission to Mars. Lastly, somewhere flashed information about the resumption of the space program, such as flights to the moon.

Why not be more ambitious and asking about quasi (Alcubierre) warp drives permitted by innovation in meta-materials?
