NASA's space shuttle program has ended. Space exploration by the concept of leaving the Earth is at a halt, at least in the US. But there's hope. Politicians have suggested favorability in investigating money to explore space.
But is it worth the money? - to explore for life. To explore when there's such a low chance to find anything living. Is it worth the chance to find a place that humans can continue to reproduce, where living is allowed by a sustainable atmosphere?
Should we be spending money elsewhere? If so or if not, why?
