UKSA... the continuation

Recently I have had a lot of questions regarding the actual benifit of 'space' ... Whether it is benifical to invest money, time and effort on a challenge that very few people engage in.

Well, I read this today [click here], and felt that it offered quite a lot of reassurance (myself included) that in fact, the UK does benifit on the space programme... If our country benifits from such a small agency, as it grows, I am sure the benifit will expand also.

It isn't just about benifit, however! We can learn a lot from exploration, just as we grow in understanding when delving deep into the sea, we expand our knowledge (sometimes unexpedtedly) when we blast off, or gaze off into the realms of the universe. And what better way to explore, than to voyage into a place where boundaries are non-existant ;)
