About Me

I live in the Florida Keys. I've been in the military and worked inside the Beltway. I've had 22 technical books and two novels published. I fly, boat, dive, shoot, and swim pretty damn well.

A Super Plan for a Lunar Shot

I do not agree with those who say that space exploration is a "waste' of money. In my view, the business of government is to pump money. Pumping it into scientific exploration is a hell of a lot better than pumping it into "targeted" social programs that usually have many downside "unforseen" impacts.

I would rather enjoy the benefits of technology than the drag of sociology. Space exploration is (far better!) science than is sociology. THIS ARTICLE from Popular Mechanics is interesting! Worth reading.
