摘要

On January 14, when President George W. Bush revived his father's 1989 plan to establish a base on the Moon and then proceed with the manned exploration of Mars, our first inclination was to dismiss it as an election year publicity stunt. There was nothing in the initial outline of the program that led us to believe that this was a serious proposal. There was no mention of its estimated costs or how he intended to fund it. Given that the price tag for the effort will almost certainly start in the hundreds of billions of dollars, we could accept the lack of immediate budgetary information from the Bush administration. After all, there is no use in scaring U.S. taxpayers until you have at least had a chance to sell them on the benefits of the program. Even though we suspect that the Moon-Mars combo does not approach being affordable, it is the nature of space market analysts to give the benefit of the doubt to new space programs.
