Part of the problem in our response is a refusal to recognize that the budget for programs like Houston's NASA need to be redirected to the task of trying to keep life on this planet rather than finding signs of life on another planet. As a child of the 50's I was in love with the Space Program as much as anyone, and the side effects of their work provided much of the break through technology of the 20th century; but now our very existence is at stake and the money, minds and equipment need to be focused elsewhere.
