Amazing? 60 years after the first airplane flight, air travel was an established, ubiquitous, affordable commercial means of transport and an efficient military platform. More than 60 years after the first man-made object was launched beyond the atmosphere (German V2 missiles), we have a 3-man station and a mess of communication satellites in low earth orbit (some in geostationary), some flags and footsteps on Moon and a bunch of probes all over the solar system. Von Braun, Korolyov, Tsiolkovsky, Potočnik etc must be rolling in their graves.
Also, scientifically speaking, the Cassini probe at Saturn and the New Horizons bound for Pluto and the Kupier belt have (and will) produce a lot more results than the Phoenix Martian lander, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and the Spirit&Opportunity rovers combined. We already know that there is no life on Mars and that there may have been conditions favourable for life there several million years ago, and that's as much as we're going to find out without sending humans there.

If you can do better than our scientists by complaining on a forum and playing an internet spaceship game then please do it. I'd like a villa on the rings of Saturn - thanks in advance.

Everyone relax, its finally offical people will actually complain about anything on a forum right down to how bad our space travel progress is coming along \o/

You guys gotta go easy on Fabien, he's still going to trolling 101. The guy tries hard in every single post that he makes, he really does, and is probably packing in some major extra credit.
Maybe we'll see some improvement when he gets to advanced trolling theory.

He has the right amount of rage, but he overthinks it and is thus an obvious troll (the obvious stands for obviously dismissed). The key is to have such an INSANE troll that people feel obligated to respond, while striking a balance with believability so people are forced to take you seriously.
Ie: What do you think of Iran? I think there is a clear threat and since we know where the nuclear development is located we must move NOW to neutralize the threat! If we do not, they will clearly strike us first!
(The above troll is a pretty good one, it invites a response directly in the beginning, and the wording of the invitation makes the post seem more "fair and reasonable" by inviting open discourse. I then proceed to both offer a subtle reference and state a preposterous but not unbelievable statement. After that I finish with a baseless accusation that people will feel obligated to respond to)

I'm fairly certain NASA could fund a significant chunk of it's budget by selling mars water to the superrich.

To be perfectly honest, finding water on mars is something for a future generation to be excited about. Sure we may send a manned craft to mars within our life time, but the significance of water being on mars is rather slim for us at the moment if we are talking about colonization.
On the other hand, if the say found water, minerals, and so forth on the moon, that would be a horse of a diffrent color.

Gotta agree with this. We're still using the flying bottle rocket. We've done jack shit since the 70's imo.
Some say the U.S. military has some pretty sophisticated stuff that is much more advanced than the space shuttle. Though, if they don't want to make their aircraft public then I guess we will have to continue using old, dangerous technology. At the speed we're going we might get a colony started on Mars in oh, about 500 years.

Everyone seems to have missed the primary reason why water on Mars is a good thing...
It makes the prospect of sending people there more realistic as the ship would have to carry less fuel - the water could be electrolysed to split it into oxygen and hydrogen, compressed and used as fuel for the return leg (assuming that the mission is to stay a month or more).
