Could you imagine if the US / China / Russia / Europe focused all of its funding on space exploration and development, as opposed to war funding and lining the pockets of defense contractors, spy agencies and corrupt government regimes?
This world would be uber-****ing cool. Hopefully in my lifetime, but I won't hold my breath.
EDIT: To add to that, and the US publicizes all their black ops projects and Area 51 goodies. That would call for a legendary binge-drinking weekend!
