Despite kleinbl00's previous advice, my fiance and I put in an offer for a house on Monday and the sellers accepted it the same day. Didn't have to go 5, 10 or more % above asking, and they're even covering closing costs. Now I get to wait until Friday for the inspection to decide if we really want to go forward with the deal.

You seem to be commenting on every related post with this sort of attitude. Frankly, I hate it. We have plenty of resources to solve problem here while also tackling space exploration. It's a matter of allocation. You and so many other people, at the mention of any space related news can't keep yourselves from criticizing because there's some other problem here we should fix first. I don't buy that argument. This mission cost $1.6 billion. That's literally nothing compared to many many, far less worthy endeavors. Go rain on a different parade.
