Every year without further R&D is another year of advancement that's not gained.

Not to mention when we finally jump back in (God knows when) we'll have to rebuild it from the ground up.


Except the private sector is carrying that torch now. Thanks SpaceX. Thanks Google.

Reality is that we have 4-5 spacecraft docked at the ISS right now

Carrying the torch? Yes - advancing fast enough to allow deep space travel, colonies, etc in the next 100 years? Highly doubtful.

Google has a shite load of money, but not full NASA budget money and resources.
