Yes, pure knowledge. You know, one of those things that makes us human to search for.
I would *much* rather spend $10 billion on a space telescope than on bombing poor people from another country back to the stone age or helping out some giant corporation that does nothing for the general good. Remember we just spent more than 100 times as much on a covid bailout that didn't seem to help the average person at all.
$10 billion amounts to about $30 a person in the US, it is hardly a huge outlay.
