I think a big problem NASA has with it's efforts is that they are focused on science, when really there is another area that I feel has been neglected, than aspect of mankind itself going to new places. Sure, sending robotic probes out to study the planets is cool and everything, but where is the high quality video footage? Where are the probes heading out to Uranus and Saturn yo obtain high quality footage to spark interest and imagination?

And why the fuck haven't we sent a man around the orbit of Venus yet? Truly the only way to fully have actually explored something is if mankind actually goes there. Makes me feel like they will never send man out to Jupiter and Neptune if they can do everything with Robots, and that's just fucking lame.
