I have to add something here...

The extremists will cry, "but we were the ones who created the problem in the first place by introducing cats to the island!"

Well, yes. So what? If introducing non-"native" (but in what century?) species to an environment is so painful, please pack up your belongings and go back to the conjoining of the Tigris and the Euphrates so as to help return the Earth to it's "natural" state.



Yeah...

If I set the budget, we'd have Ares and more. Unfortunately, I don't set the budget, and Ares is just too expensive and too far out for us to accomplish our goals within the budget we were given.

If we halt the ISS, all versions of Ares, and transport Orion and Altair aboard DIRECTv3's Jupiter family of Shuttle-Derived Launch Vehicles, we just might make it back to the Moon by 2020.
