And I don&amp;#x27;t say that with dread, it&amp;#x27;s just more of an awakening I am having to a future that I had not thought much about until very recently. I think in fact I look forward to it because I suppose I want a technological rival to also draw the U.S. back to the Moon.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m not sure why though. My child-brain has never even questioned the validity of pursuing space exploration. But I guess as I get old now and see the Earth itself heading into dangerous territory I can kind of understand the naysayers that may have not been as enthusiastic as I was as a kid about a future that follows a timeline similar to Kubrick&amp;#x27;s &amp;quot;2001&amp;quot;.</text></comment>

A website? If a book, how does one buy it? If a website, what is the link?&lt;p&gt;A search just turns up essentially the article above which seems to be a copy and paste of the news release.</text></comment>
