Turnabout!
The New Strategy for Space
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

Friday, November 22, 2013
I had just concluded a most recently presented document with a section of that piece entitled ``What should we actually do about Mars?'' This new publication, just presented here below, may tell you.
Since some time later than the August 8, 2012, successful landing of Curiosity, on Mars, I had spent a good part of less than a recent year, nursing a growing conviction, that the idea of actually sending human beings to live, even briefly, on Mars, would have been the result of a mistake in choice of priorities. It was, ironically, the brilliant success of both Curiosity's landing, and of its operating design, which actually supplied me with one of the two factors which have combined to prompt my present conclusions reached on those accounts. The additional, ultimately still far more important consideration, has now been, the apparently increasing accumulation of evidence for the existence of an accumulation of a deadly threat of lurking ``killer asteroids'' seeming to await their launch of an attack against a mankind now living on Earth.
I speak from experience, as follows: Since the late 1980s, I had been personally committed, over the course of most of this intervening time, to a prospect for a future manned landing on Mars.

The additional, ultimately still far more important consideration, has now been, the apparently increasing accumulation of evidence for the existence of an accumulation of a deadly threat of lurking 'killer asteroids' seeming to await their launch of an attack against a mankind now living on Earth. . . . We must deal, both immediately and practically, with the deadly threats now represented by relevant types of asteroids and also other relevant types of threats from within, or near our galaxy!'
