Thank you all, thank you very much for being here. So excited that we have the next president of the United States with us today in rochester, where i live. Thank you. [cheers and applause] so i have had the pleasure of knowing joe for quite a while, and what i have seen on his personal side is his warmth and his caring and the way he takes time out to hear people, and it is a lovely, beautiful trait, but there is so much more that defines joe biden.

Unfavorable . Lee did a poll the last couple weeks with a verepresentative of the population put out 20 questions but a lot of good nuggets are in there but the real conundrum is on the one hand they really value in support Space Exploration but 70 percent they see that as a public good in space and support Government Intervention there and we dont have support that way but nasa should be involved in space and on the flipside but not to go to the moon or even mars or even Long Distance unmanned exploration it is about being close to earth what helps our existence on the planet like to monitor weather patterns so on the one hand we have been there done that.

It is about being close to earth, doing those things that help our existence on the planet such as monitoring weather patterns and climactic change. We have done that, been there, been to the moon, not so interested in mars. 52 of american support actually using space to better our lives on earth. Host what do you make of the 8 . 8 of americans say a manned moon mission should not be a top priority. The administration has said we are going back by 2024. Guest they are not aligned with public thinks. An Public Opinion has said we have done that, been there. Spac
