"Robotic missions are much cheaper and may provide more scientific
information, but they don't catch the public imagination in the
same way, and they don't spread the human race into space, which
I'm arguing should be our long-term strategy," Hawking said. "If
the human race is to continue for another million years, we will
have to boldly go where no one has gone before."
