Robert Ballard offers an interesting opinion on why space is more explored than the oceans. I wonder if he actually believes that or if he said it just because he was on the Colbert Report.
Also, aside from the numbers, I think space is much more prevalent in popular culture, like movies and literature.
Other thoughts?? Rudy, thanks for finding some support for your argument...
I think that the difference between funding is mostly based on the materials used throughout the research. And this is also only about money.
I don't read or hear anything about space anymore but a lot about the oceans because of the speculation of the glaciers and sea levels, plus the oil spill.
so THAT'S why lobsters are red . . . I had no idea.
great interview.
