Don't you think Astrobiology is reliant on peoples faith that interesting results will follow from the capital investments required? I think thats one of the main things that are pushing astrobiology forward. If no one gave a fuck, or no one had any faith in the field, there would be no capital investments. I honestly don't understand the sentiment in the comment - or why you would caution against having faith?
