I think it's a kind of patriotic deal for a lot of folks looking for anything to be proud of these days, sort of like the Miracle on Ice...

"Change my mind" Yep, just like the money Spain spent funding Columbus on a voyage to India. A total waste of money.

"Change my mind" It's one of the most amazing feats in the history of humanity...I'd say it's pretty awesome. 130 million miles away....took 7 months to fly there. At the speed of light it takes 11 minutes for a signal to reach the drone....Pretty dang cool.

What's the cost? Taxpayer money? https://spacenews.com/report-calls-for-revamped-cost-conscious-vision-for-mars-exploration/Rough cost estimate The full Mars program outlined by MASWG would cost around $300 million a year during the first decade, ramping up to $500 million a year beyond that. An additional $150 million a year, the report says, would be needed for technology development and funding extended missions. Jakosky said that a less-robust but still compelling suite of missions could be implemented for $150 million per year in the first decade, ramping up to $300 million per year after that. These rough estimates, which Jakosky said were based on “simple assumptions” rather than a formal cost analysis, don’t include what NASA already plans to spend on Mars Sample Return or extended operations for several aging spacecraft already studying the planet.

That's a great question...I'd think it was way cheaper than most things congress flings money at but I could be wrong...

What's the cost? Taxpayer money? I’m guessing a hell of a lot less than gets pizzed away given to countries as aid that hate us.... You have to look no further than the last Covid relief bill...
I believe in science and I’m an insufferable [censored] Actually, BBC is pretty damn good "You Cannot Simultaneously Be Politically Correct And Intellectually Honest!"

Very cool I watched the landing the day after it landed. When are the gonna fly the chopper?
Its a waste of money until we need a new home..... it took us 4.5 billion years to get this far, and it can be all wiped out in one fell swoop. The survival of man kind has to span more the the earth in order to insure it lives on.
