There are higher priorities, but given how little is being invested
into space development it should receive more funding. I'm particular
to (at least partial closure) self-rep automatic systems on the Moon
first. Most of the work for that can be done on Earth surface in space
simulators, and hence require no cheap launch to LEO (but I still
think they shouldn't have killed Sanger).
