Space is men's ultimate terra incognita, it's full of unknown facts and It's thought to be the only possible breakthrough for the current impasse in the field of Science. It's valid to think that Space exploration is not the most obvious thing we should do in the current situation(which I don't think it need further description). However, you must admit there are certain indisputable benefits in it, and It's turning many heads these days.
Lunar regolith is basically a high density composition of titanium, iron, numerous other valuable metals and it also contains quite a lot of 3Helium, which is definitely going to be advantageous resource as a fuel for deuterium-He3 fusion. But the moon is only a tiny portion of the mystery and hope that lies within Space. There are literally millions of asteroids in the solar system, and till today we've discovered that there are thousands of NEO(Near Earth Object)s that are composed of unimaginable amount of metals and rare elements. If we can capture just a single NEO(let's say, an M-type asteroid made of nickel)(and we can-we're almost there to actual asteroid-mining), the entire globe can stop deforesting hundreds of hectares a day for a whole year. Not only is space exploration a next step of a development of science and technology, it is also considered as an open opportunity to saving the Earth as well.
Although the current launch cost per kilogram is extremely high, this can eventually be overcome by continuous researches and development in aviation/aerospace. What's interesting and at the same time very fortunate is that the increasing public recognitions of the rising subject and financial/academic supports are finally giving the boost that the aerospace industry just needed, but in a different way it also did during the cold war era. Think about spaceshipX, Falcon, SLS, and Orion. They're not like Saturn V or Soyuz-they're developed by civilian ventures and they're the leading pioneers in the aerospace industry!!
Okay, this was supposed to be a correction to your essay, but I guess this is also worthwhile in its own right. Right? :)
