China's Space Telescope

I think the contrast between China and the U.S. really stands out when comparing this to the problems with the scope in Hawaii.

From the article:

If those were typical fundies in Hawaii., we'd be laughing at them.

Progress is a four-letter word to many. Dams, railroad-easements--you have to have them. This is no different.

Right now, you have a lot of NIMBYs making trouble for airports all over.

They people I bought the house from were already moving. What does my living arrangements have to do with this thread?

I would also add that I posted that to point how how ridiculous I think things can get in the United States. We need to either place a higher value on scientific discovery or eventually get left in the dust by countries like China.
