All space exploration brings up that "maybe humanity has a shot" emotion in
me... but as much as I tend to view it all as "Earthlings in space" there's
also a strong nationalistic undercurrent.  I mean honestly, isn't globalism
better when it's your country taking the lead.  ;^)

With the ISS becoming more and more the "NASA doing everything SS" how can
you not feel just a little national pride?

I just wish that NASA got more respect here... it's a rotten shame to see
some of the most important programs we have being scrapped due to
short-sighted budget cuts.
