Fly me to the Moon but no further.

What do I do with this?
Almost everyday I hear on public radio a program about stars, blackholes, quasar’s, Goldilock planets, and marvelous detailed color photos from telescopes previously launched far into outer space.
What do I do or even we do with such eclectic information? How does it affect me here in northcentral Oklahoma. Can it gain me fame or wealth? Can it help me start a business. Will it increase my estate’s worth then pass it on to my two lovely daughters?
What tangible value does it have.
To me it appears just to be ‘make work’ and nothing else. They build huge telescopes high atop the tallest mountains and give degrees in “Make Work.” Wake me up when I can cash in on this useless boondoggle.
My appoligy to my astronomy friends. But anyway, why are we so obsessed with things floating in outer space? It’s hard enough to make sense of unexplainable things here on the ground.
And then there are those pinheads wanting to fly off to Mars to start a new colony. Never mind the Mars atmosphere is unsuited for human habitation. Not to mention there are no Starbucks, no Super Cuts, no Taco Bells, no drive thru-carwashes, and no ATM’s. For Pete sakes, why would any intelligent human want this? Go get a job at Disneyland.
