I think "serious about space" AND "manned mission to Mars" are not compatible concepts.  We need to crawl before we run.

"Getting serious" would first mean developing safe (for people, cargo, and planet's environment) and economical means for popping in and out of orbit, and maintaining a viable and useful manned presence in orbit.  Ultimately, it needs to be profitable, which means no NASA needs to find a comfy chair in the back of the history books.
I could be the world's greatest underachiever, if I could just learn to apply myself.

我认为“严肃对待太空”以及“登陆火星计划”的概念并不合适。在我们行动之前我们还步履蹒跚。
“严肃对待”首先意味着发展(对于人员,飞船以及星球的环境来说)安全并且经济的途径间歇进入和脱离轨道,也意味着在轨道上维持可行并且有用,要一直有人驾驶(不太好翻译)。最后,它也必须是有利可图的,也就意味着没有一个国家航空和宇宙航行局愿意只是“在历史教科书上找个舒服的椅子”。
如果我只是学会应用自身,那么我可能是世上最低能的人了。

BillPSU is corect, but I would like to add that the original reason for the 1960's space rush to the moon likely had a different reason.
BillPSU 说的对,但是我还要补充说,60年代登月的空间潮的初衷是另有原因的。

At that time (1960), there was a growing consensus in gov't that we needed to improve rocket launch technology in order to realize an effective nuclear deterrent. At that time, the failure rate of US rockets was of concern and marginally competitive the the Russians.
那个时候(1960),政府内越来越多的人达成共识,就是我们需要发展火箭发射技术来形成有效的核威慑。那个时候,美国的火箭发射失败率是受到关注的而且是与俄国在竞争着的。

Not only did the huge amount of research dollars point the US universities in the direction of supporting the goal of better launch vehicles, but JFK's verbage added a vision that was probably in the minds of many college science students, and that vision ( of flying to the moon) was probably a more attractive thought than the real reason, ie, building a bigger and better strategic missile system. The vison thing worked, and there was a huge increase in science and engineering students in the 60's.
不仅是巨大的研究资金使得美国的大学研究转向于为如何达到更好地发射火箭这一目标提供支持,还有JFK's verbage还形成了憧憬,这一憧憬注入到了很多大学生的思想里边,而且这种憧憬(飞向月球)比起真实的原因,例如,建立一个更大的更好的战略导弹系统来说,更多的是因为它具有强大的吸引力。这样的憧憬起了作用,于是60年代学科学和工程的学生大大增加了。

The missile and space industry  is now mature and does not need the same jump-start as was required in 1960, but it needs to address the normal issues of regeneration of staff as the grey hairs retire. There are other technology fields that might need a jump start, but it is hard to imagine that anyone in gov't feels as strongly about those new issues as was felt in 1960 regarding the "missile gap".
导弹和空间工业已经步入正轨而且不需要象60年代那样要突然起步,但是在老一代人员退休后,需要确定如何正常的发展新生力量。还有其它技术领域可能需要跳跃式的开展,但是很难想象政府里的人认为这种新问题出现严重到就好像进入了 60年代“火箭空白”时期。

Thank you BillPSU for your very lively adds to this discussion!
感谢BILLPSU对此次讨论的补充。
What astounds me is all the "logic" banter among so many of you: dollars, dollars, dollars! Where is all your sense of "challenge" and "adventure?" Have you been scrambling away at the rat race too long to sit back and star at the sky at night and allow yourselves to think about "what's out there?"
让我非常震惊的是你们之中很多人的逻辑:钱!钱!钱!你们的挑战和冒险精神又哪里去了呢?你们是否脱离了你死我活斗争太久而意志松懈了?在星夜你们有没有凝视星空,扪心自问“那边是什么?”(注:star at 应该是 stare at)
I'm not at all suggesting Federal dollars alone pay for this - private enterprise will take us farther and faster: it just has to have some assistance for the investment.
我不是建议仅有联邦财政来支付这一切,私人企业也将可以做的更好更快。他们只是要一些投资上的帮助。
But for those of you "rational" thinkers out there - without even looking at the "hot button" social programs or corporate welfare programs our media hypes every election year - please PLEASE consider the "unheard-of" of OUR dollars. For example, while WE cannot even get forgiven a couple thousand dollars in back 401-K early withdrawal penalties or back taxes or whatever, WE somehow can ALWAYS and CERTAINLY afford to FORGIVE India's $4B debt to YOU and ME, or the BILLIONS in debt owed to us by so many other countries - 1st, 2nd, or 3rd world.
但你们当中的“理性”思考者们有没有考虑一下那些一些秘密基金,即使没有看看那些选举年媒体大肆宣传的社会保障计划或者福利计划。比如,我们无法免除退休金提前支取的(一两千美元)罚金,却可以常常免除印度40亿,或者其他第一,二,三世界国家数十亿的债务。(这段翻译的不是很好。401K是美国的一种退休计划)。
THAT'S where the money can come from: those who OWE you and me.
那才是资金的来源:那些欠我们的人。

We are at a point where our scientific dollars need to be spent carefully, since they decrease on an almost. The orbital program needs to be privatized and replaced. The last century we saw a rise in big defense contractors like bechtel and Haliburton, this century we'll see a rise in the private space companies. The first one to get a man (or men) in an orbit where satallite mantenance can occur will make oogles of money in the next few years. Then our govt. can award these companies big contracts to keep our fleets of sats flying and can spend the science dollars on genuine (non "immediately" commercial) ventures.

Hell, maybe we can even sell the "space station" to a "pharmasutical company consortium"!

Getting serious about space is no longer easy. Even if we travel at the speed of light, we are not going past the crap of solar system to any useful thing. Given our present level of science and if one great president exclaims someday, "lets go to Jupiter" it may excite scientists but not the general public (votes) hassled with the taxes.

During sixties, it was a cold war period and public support for such programs was very high because of ego embedded in human nature. In present times, I do not think the political will can be garnered for such big missions.

To properly evaluate the space program and its benefits, I think you need to factor in the value of "space spinoffs".  Space spinoffs are those products and technologies that are by-products of space investment.

A Google search for "space spinoffs" should yield lots of reading material.  Here is one for starters:

==> The trouble with that, is that /if/ you regard nuclear power as a good thing then developing and using atomic bombs was a good idea. (emphasis mine)
The first non-sequitur is assuming that just because the ending spinoff is good, that the initial desired goal was also good.  The atomic bomb does not have to be good in order for nuclear power to be good.

A second non-sequitur is the "and using" attachment of use to development in making the comparison.  I submit there is no inherent lack of goodness in the development of atomic bombs, but there is considerable question about the goodness of using them.  The use was, although perhaps inevitable, not a necessary condition for the further and positive development of the spinoff.

What is the engineer's estimate of the military superiority gained from space superiority (to take a phrase from air superiority)?

What are the ramifications of an imbalance of space control by governments?

Is there another technology that could give military superiority that would trump space superiority? (like quantum computers breaking all other nations crypto)

While the US slept peacefully after WWI, Japan and Germany advanced military technology to dangerous superiority levels.

What is the safe level of spending to limit the disaster of that could take place if the wrong people got too much power.

I would posit that it is incumbent upon the responsible people to make sure a dangerous gap does not exist in space superiority.  Of course the responsible people would take the blame for not spending the money on obvious good things for the poor and those that do not want to take care of themselves or just can't.  But it is also irresponsible to not take care of those very same people by not letting the "bad guys" gain too much of a superiority.


==========================================================

BitTwiddler (Electrical) 15 Nov 05 9:53  
Visigoth asked: What is the engineer's estimate of the military superiority gained from space superiority (to take a phrase from air superiority)?

I think that the first nation that establishes effective control of space and deploys large numbers of weapons in space will establish effective control of the oceans. This will give that nation the same advantages of sea power that allowed Britain to defeat Napoleonic France and the Allies to win both World Wars.

For example, what happens if China decides to invade Taiwan in 2015? The US Navy has about 250 ships. It is estimated that in ten years China's Navy will be roughly the same size as the US Navy. This would normally create a balance of power, but space-based weapons could change everything.

Imagine that China launches several hundred one-ton payloads of antishipping weapons into low Earth orbit. If China develops radar satellites (RORSATs), then they could locate US ships anywhere on the planet. The weapons would be guided by the Galileo navsats which China and Europe are building already. If China deorbited all of the weapons at the same time, then 250 US Navy ships would have at least one warhead moving at more than 7 km per second headed directly for them. Larger ships such as carriers would have multiple weapons targeting them. I do not know of any existing defense that could stop such weapons.

The US Navy could suffer a global version of Pearl Harbor. It isn't too far fetched to assume that most of the US surface Navy could be sunk or severely damaged in a single hour. American supercarriers could become the 21st century equivalent of WWII battleships: dangerous at close range but extremely vulnerable to attack by weapons with a longer range deployed from a new environment.

After that, the Chinese could take Taiwan and then blockade the Persian Gulf and take over the world's oil supply. In ten years Europe will be effectively demilitarized, so they won't be able to stop them. The Russian Navy is rusting to death. Who else has a significant Navy? Japan? India?

It isn't too fantastic to imagine the Chinese building 500 or 1000 orbital antishipping weapons. The US deployed thousands of ICBMs during the Cold War. China has demonstrated that it can launch heavy payloads into orbit. China will be the world's largest manufacturer by 2015. If they decide to outbuild the US in a new arms race, they will have many more trained engineers and a greater manufacturing capacity.

What is the US doing to meet this potential challenge? The Shuttle is grounded. Congress just authorized the purchase of two Russian spacecraft and rockets to keep the space station operating. The space station was ordered in 1984 and still isn't finished and delivered. NASA plans to go back to the moon - one year later than the Chinese, in 2018.

问题在于是不是你认为原子能非常有用就想当然的认为研究和使用原子弹就是好主意。
第一个不合逻辑的推论仅仅是因为假定结局是好的,初衷也是好的。原子能是好的但原子弹未必是好的。
第二个不合逻辑的推论是将发展跟应用进行对比联系 ,我认为原子弹的研究本身未必没有好处,然而需要考虑的问题是如何利用它的好处。尽管不可避免,从长远和积极发展的角度来看它的用处还不十分确定。
最后,那个观念为何如此令人费神呢?

==> The trouble with that, is that /if/ you regard nuclear power as a good thing then developing and using atomic bombs was a good idea. (emphasis mine)
The first non-sequitur is assuming that just because the ending spinoff is good, that the initial desired goal was also good.  The atomic bomb does not have to be good in order for nuclear power to be good.

A second non-sequitur is the "and using" attachment of use to development in making the comparison.  I submit there is no inherent lack of goodness in the development of atomic bombs, but there is considerable question about the goodness of using them.  The use was, although perhaps inevitable, not a necessary condition for the further and positive development of the spinoff.

Finally, why is that notion if troubling?
Good Luck
麻烦的就是:如果你认为核能是一个好事情那么正在发展和使用原子弹就是一个好主意了。(强调一下我个人的)
第一个不合逻辑的推论就是:假定仅仅因为最终的副产品是好的,那么最初的渴望目标也同样是好的。原子弹绝对不能因为核能是好的而也被认定是好的。
第二个不合逻辑的推论就是“正在使用”与用来发展作比较。我提出对于原子弹的发展本身而言并没有与生俱来的缺乏仁道,但是使用他们那就是一个值得考虑的仁道问题。尽管使用他们或许是不可避免的,但是对于副产品的进一步积极发展并不是必要条件。
最后,为什么那个概念被混淆?
好运

楼上的厉害,佩服!!
小弟没看前面的内容,很多都没对上号
What is the engineer's estimate of the military superiority gained from space superiority (to take a phrase from air superiority)?

What are the ramifications of an imbalance of space control by governments?

Is there another technology that could give military superiority that would trump space superiority? (like quantum computers breaking all other nations crypto)

While the US slept peacefully after WWI, Japan and Germany advanced military technology to dangerous superiority levels.

What is the safe level of spending to limit the disaster of that could take place if the wrong people got too much power.

工程师对能够从太空领先中获得的军事领先的评估是什么呢?
由政府控制的太空失衡的结果是什么?
还有别的技术能像太空领先那样取得军事优势吗?(如同原子弹能毁灭所有的其它民族)
然而美国就在日本、德国已经把军事技术发展到极为致命的水平之后安静的睡着了。

究竟最低军费开销水平是多少才能够预防灾难发生呢,这种灾难当一些愚蠢的民族太迷信武力时就有可能发生。
I would posit that it is incumbent upon the responsible people to make sure a dangerous gap does not exist in space superiority.  Of course the responsible people would take the blame for not spending the money on obvious good things for the poor and those that do not want to take care of themselves or just can't.  But it is also irresponsible to not take care of those very same people by not letting the "bad guys" gain too much of a superiority.
我认为依靠那些有责任心的人来确保不会在太空领域出现危险的差距是我们的义务。当然,有责任心的人会因为没有把钱花在明显的好事情上而自责,例如帮助穷人和那些不想或不能照顾自己的人们。但是如果我们没有好好照顾那些没有让通过"盖伊“得到太多的优势的人们,这同样是不负责任的。

硬着头皮翻了几句,还请斑竹费心订正了
