Gotta admit I’m with you. I think Nasa wastes lots of money.

Mainly due to the ISS and trying to keep humans alive in space and all of the resources that requires to get that much mass up to speed in orbit. Until we come up with a better / cheaper method of propulsion and getting mass to orbit it doesn’t make sense. Many of the major science and discoveries coming from NASA comes from its unmanned probes. It’s far far cheaper and provides a massive amount of science and discoveries that humans just can’t compete with.
