Certaintly not novel anymore but it's been so long, I can't imagine not having anybody up there. Even if they are just orbiting earth. I still think the ISS is pretty cool. Wish I could go there.

I don't know if I'd be willing to trade it for a return mission to the moon but I probably would and certaintly for a Mars mission. Of course my solution is both. More money, more missions. An astronaut in space is a return on our investment for their training and they always take cool pictures.
