It Makes a Difference to the Sheep

"OUR FUTURE IN SPACE IS HISTORY" This interesting piece doesn't actually support what the title seems to indicate and for good reason:

public opinion polls have shown consistent approval of space flight as a national pursuit. "Despite the dangers, human space flight is here to stay," says Brian J. Cantwell, a professor of astronautics at Stanford.

FLASHBACK UPDATE:

"We'll continue our quest in space. There will be more shuttle flights and more shuttle crews and yes, more volunteers, more civilians, more teachers in space. Nothing ends here; our hopes and our journeys continue." -- Ronald Reagan (1/28/86).
