On one hand, this is a momentous day for private space flight. On the other, we're closer to Moon lobbyists than ever.

If we had moon lobbyists, at least NASA would get better funding. I'd take moon lobbying over coal/oil/defense/farming/etc. any day.

If we had moon lobbyists, it would probably be because the coal/oil/defense/farming/etc. industries discovered a way to make some money up there.

Sounds like a good place for them to me.
