We need to create an institutional culture at NASA which considers long-term multi-decade pioneering missions by married child-bearing couples as the norm in long-distance space travel. The days of Flags-and-Footprints followed by regression into multi-decade lulls in further human exploration are over. The tremendous resources humanity has to allocated to NASA for space exploration are not intended to catapult a select few into a lifetime of black-tie dinners and annual speaking retreats on\u00a0Maui. The purpose of human space exploration is to develop space-based resources, increase our understanding of nature, and settle the solar system.
