=**Aff Topicality Card**= Faith 8/31/9 [] “ Giving NASA a clear mission “ G. Ryan Faith is an adjunct fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).
 * 1) Physical presence in space through humans OR ROBOTS is a limiting definition of space exploration

__Giving NASA a clear mission__

If neither technology-oriented nor destination-oriented objectives seem able to provide a sense of direction to guide the nation’s efforts in space, then what can? To approach this question, it is useful to ask why President Kennedy’s challenge to go to the Moon was so effective in providing NASA with leadership. The critical element of this challenge that, although never explicit, was so important to NASA’s health and growth during this period was the transformation—at least in fact, if not in law—into an exploration agency. __If we wish to see NASA act effectively as a space exploration agency, then the most direct way to do this is to amend the Space Act to explicitly task the agency with the job of space exploration__. However, before we do so, we must define what space exploration actually is.

__Space exploration is the expansion of human influence in space.__

This definition of exploration is inherently one of capacity building. H__uman influence in space is a measure of our ability to do useful things beyond the Earth’s surface. In order to do something useful, there has to be some sort of human presence, either humans themselves or their robotic proxies.__ Once some measure of human influence has been established at some destination in space, there are two ways a space exploration agency can expand that influence. One, the agency can decrease the costs and increase the benefits of human influence at a given location until such influence becomes sufficiently useful that it is economically self-sustaining, at which point continued use of agency resources is unnecessary. Alternately, human influence can be extended to some new place that may in future become home to some form of self-supporting human influence. The key element is that such a mandate compels each step to build on past accomplishments and lay the groundwork for future missions.
