Default The cost of space exploration

America already spends $15.5 billion per year on space exploration, less than 1 percent of the overall federal budget. I read about this and I personally feel that they could spend the money on much more worthwhile projects - like health, security, the homeless, education, many things. It would be sensible to leave space exploration alone. We have learnt enough and really don't need to know much more about what is out there. There are more important things to spend money on and space is not one of them.

Anyone agree or disagree?
