Journal Space Exploration

Should space be explored by NASA (government funded agency- with educated and trained astronauts, scientists, researchers, employees) OR by private companies (raise own money and may or may not have educated and trained astronauts, scientists, researchers, employees)? Explain your decision.

OR

There has been much debate and budget reduction within NASA. Should we as United States citizens continue to fund (with tax money) space exploration? OR should these funds be used to stimulate our economy? Explain your decision.
